That is true, in fact Joseph Campbell has tried to answer that question. In one of his works The Hero with A Thousand Faces, he writes about how many of the world cultures somehow have the same theme in many of their myths. Sadly I have yet to read the book myself, not easy to get and costs more than I would like for just a quick reference book.
