Product Description
Myths are not the same as legends, folk-tales, and fables. Legends, though very similar to myths, are often based on an event that may have really happened or a person who may have really existed. Legends emphasize the story more than the significance of the story. Folktales are stories usually knows to be fictitious. Myths have many functions. One is to answer questions such as, "How was the world make?" Another is to justify an existing social system and account for traditional rites and customs.
