This also happened with Dragons. They were believed by Europeans and Asians alike before any contact. Though it is quite clear that Roman Mythology was, well, ripped off from that of the Greek, if you compare the Greeka and the Egyptain, you'd see quite some similarities.

Perhaps it has to do with the fact that we are all human. Our imaginations move in the same general direction, despite individual minds straying a tad from the main line, or not going as far. It's all still West, parsay, even if your moving at a 95 degree angle from the horizon rather than a 90..... or maybe it's not the Horizon, but the Vertical line opposing it. Did i loose anyone, becouse now i'm lost in my own words...
