About this listen

Episode 28 explores the myth of Hyperborea, the legendary northern paradise described by the ancient Greeks as a land beyond the North Wind. Said to be inhabited by peaceful, long-lived people devoted to Apollo, Hyperborea evolved into a spiritual symbol of purity and perfection. Though its location and existence remain unproven, the legend has influenced esoteric traditions, polar myths, and the universal human longing for a lost utopia.
