Task 1 - What is mythology?


Mythology is the collection of myths belonging to a specific culture or people relating to their history and beliefs. These myths may be about their ancestors, gods, heroes or even supernatural beings. These myths can be expressions of a belief such as a people's religion. Myths usually tell a story and/or teach a lesson. Myths can be expressed with pictures and symbols. Once a myth is created it is passed down from generation to generation of a people, eventually becoming a legend. Mythology is a large and important part of humanity and may never be completely discovered.
