The mythology of Oceania and the gods of the Pacific region are both complex and diverse. They have been developed over many centuries on each of the islands and atolls that make up Oceania. Some gods are shared between many groups of islands while others are specific to one set of islands or even to a single island. Their exact roles are often overlapping as one god can appear in different places under different names. A god can also appear in many different forms. ==References== * Anita Dalal, ''Myths of Oceania'', Steck-Vaughn, (2002); ISBN 9780739849781 * A. W.
