In fact, When you google 'the cosmology of.' one of the first things to be suggested is 'the cosmology of the rig veda,' the ancient Indian mystico-religious tract. Yet, cosmology is not exclusively a scientific world, and the word is often used to refer to pre- or non-scientific conceptions of the universe and its origins, i.e. I would go with 'Cosmogony' or 'Cosmology.' Of course, these words are context-dependent, and I am not sure if you are looking for a general word, but there are many analogous words that would be suitable in different contexts.īoth pertain to the origin of the cosmos cosmogony has more mythological overtones, while cosmology has more logical ones.
