We find ample references to theosophy in myths. Though often garbled by faulty remembrance and nearly always disguised in symbolic language, they are quite recognizable if we have an idea of what to look for. Other systems used other names. The creative gods are quite distinct from that ineffable principle. Higher gods aid lesser gods and these aid humans in their evolutionary growth.
Theosophy enumerates kingdoms of lives both above and below the human stage of development.
The lowest elementals we know little about, and the kingdoms above the human we know even less about. We also know very little about the interior of the earth, traditionally supposed to be the realm of gnomes and trolls, or about the ranges of the magnetosphere whose swirling currents flow far beyond the Van Allen belts. Perhaps the myths have something to teach us about them too. By then the rocky global crust supported vegetation and bodies of men and beasts even more grossly material than they are at present. But before that lowest, most material point was reached, an important event took place which is of intimate concern to us.
