Twins appear in the mythologies of many cultures around the world. In some they are seen as ominous and in others they are seen as auspicious. Twins in mythology are often cast as two halves of the same whole, sharing a bond deeper than that of ordinary siblings, or seen as fierce rivals. However, twins can also reflect a complete opposition of the other, such as the "civilized" Gilgamesh , and the "wild" Enkidu ; or in the commonly known instance of good and evil twin identities.
