Mythology Is......

Came from the Greek words Mythos which means For Story-Of-The-People and Logos which means For Word or Speech, so it means, So The Spoken Story Of A People.

It's the study and interpretation of often sacred tales or fables of a culture known as myths or the collection of such stories which deal with various aspects of the human condition: good and evil, the meaning of suffering, human origins, the origin of place, names, animals, cultural values and traditions, the meaning of life and death, the afterlife and the Gods or a God.

Express the beliefs and values about these subjects held by a certain culture.

Tell the stories of Ancestors and the origin of Humans and the World, the Gods, Supernatural Beings like Satyrs, Nymphs, Mermaids and Heroes with Super-Human, usually God-Given powers as in the case of Heracles or Hercules, Perseus of the Greeks.

It also describe origins or nuances of long-held customs or explain natural events such as the Sunrise and Sunset, the cycle of the Moon and the Seasons or Thunder and Lightning Storms.

It has played an internal part in every Civilization throughout the World.
