Mythology

Mythology refers to a collection of traditional stories, legends, and beliefs that explain the origins, deities, ancestors, and the nature of the universe within a particular culture or civilization. These narratives often involve supernatural beings, gods, heroes, and the creation of the world, providing moral and ethical lessons, cultural norms, and explanations for natural phenomena. Mythology serves as a framework for understanding human experiences and the cosmos, often encompassing themes of life, death, and the afterlife. Different cultures have their own distinct mythological systems, such as Greek, Roman, Norse, Egyptian, and Hindu mythology, each contributing to the rich tapestry of human storytelling and cultural identity.
