What are the sources of the imagery for the Discworld resting on the backs of the four elephants and Great A'tuin?
The turtle and elephant bit come from Hindu mythology. But the Vedas mention only one elephant and the world spins at the end of his trunk. I want to know if there are other mythologies Pratchett is specifically referencing here.
