Ascension myths are myths about certain legendary heroes' last days of Earth before their departing to Heaven or some similar realm. Richard Miller argues that several Greco-Roman ascension myths have several features in common: Jesus Christ is a good fit, as is Romulus and some other legendary heroes. Romulus even had a "great commission" message: to conquer the world (Livy, History of Rome, I:1.16).
