Time and objective reality in the African mythology

The paper considers main concepts of African mythology concerning time and objective reality. Time is considered to be a sum of concrete phenomena and events. Time does not go from past to future, but from present to past. All actions made by man have been looked through the prism of mythological thinking. African ontology is anthropocentric. Its basic categories are god, spirit, man, animals and plants, phenomena and objects of abiocoen.
