As far as the later concepts go, Tolkien was working on two Myths. One myth was the incorrect myth (flat earth which includes the Silmarillion's version of the Sun and Moon) and the round earth myth which is the correct myth as I described earlier.

The problem he had was trying to attribute the flat earth myth to Men.
