A mythological king is an archetype in mythology. A king is considered a "mythological king" if he is included and described in the culture's mythology. Unlike a fictional king, aspects of their lives may have been real and legendary, or that the culture (through legend and story telling) believed to be real. In the myth, the legends that surround any historical truth might have evolved into symbols of "kinship" and leadership, and expanded with descriptions of spiritual, supernatural or magical chain of events. For example, in legend the king may have magical weapons and fight dragons or other mythological beasts. His archetypical role is usually to protect and serve the people.

  • En sagokung är en påstådd forntida härskare, som endast är känd från relativt sena, ofta litterära källor. En sagokung är inte känd från samtida eller någorlunda samtida kvarlevor som mynt, inskriptioner, diplom, krönikor eller annaler. En sagokung kan därför inte bevisas vara en historisk person. (sv)
