History · Europe · Origins

Every people remembers a beginning.

A she-wolf by the Tiber, a white eagle’s nest, a stag leading two brothers east, a forefather on a lone hill. These are the stories Europe’s peoples tell about where they came from, told as short films.

How Eurigins tells it

Stories, not lessons

Every page opens with the film and the saga as it is told. Dates and sources come afterwards, for anyone who wants them.

In their own voice

Peoples are named as they name themselves, and each film ends on symbols they chose: the anthem, the flag, the places they love.

Honest about the telling

Each saga says where it was first written down and how it changed. A myth is presented as a myth.
