WHAT ARE MYTHS?!?!!?

Myths are a set of beliefs, usually dealing with supernatural elements which have an imaginary existence. A system of myths which are inter-connected with each other is known as mythology. The Ancient Greek and Roman civilizations had their own particular and similar mythology, like many other parts of the world.

In ancient times, when science had not progressed to such an extent when there was an answer tio everything, people had their own ideas about how things came into being and worked, so out of their beliefs they evolved gods and goddesses assigned to do particualr tasks in the governing of the world. Greek and Roman mythology also consisted of mythical creatures which had special powers and would sometimes assist the gods, and heroes of their times, while some would be monsters, wreaking havoc.

However, the gods and goddesses were imperfect in some aspects, while some of the mortals became heroes because of their capabilities and special powers or they were assisted by the gods. Many famous events involving famous Greek and Roman heroes, mythical creatures, and gods and goddesses, took place in Greek and Roman mythology.

Elements of Greek and Roman mythology appear in art and literature, and these beliefs have persisted till today, majorly because they have been able to fascinate audiences over the ages.
