What do Norse and roman have in common?

Norse Mythology and Greco-Roman Mythology are more similar than one would think. Evidence points to religious similarity dating back to the beginnings of civilization, as humans migrated north out of Africa and into Eurasia. The idea of a Proto-Indo-European religion ties together the first religions in Mesopotamia, the Greco-Roman Pantheon, the High German and Old Norse pantheons, and the pantheon of the Indus Valley civilization, a forebear of Hinduism. In all of these religions, the Thunder God is placed at the pinnacle of power. Zeus, Jupiter, and Indrus are all the rulers of their respective pantheons, and Thor (or Donar in old germanic) is often revered as stronger than his father Odin. Of course, to a primitive society, what better explanation is there for the deafening cacophony of thunder than the voice of god itself? Likewise, all of these religions have extensive legends and tales, Underworlds (Hades:Tatarus::Niflheim:Helheim), fables with morals, often lengthy explanations for natural disasters, etc. There's probably a book about all this somewhere.
