In my opinion the biggest myth is that it was adopted and signed by the delegates it on July 4, 1776. Jefferson's draft was changed first by John Adams and Benjamin Franklin, then presented to the Congress, which made further changes. On July 4, 1776 the delegates were done with changes and they had an acceptable format for the declaration. John Hancock and Charles Thomson, Secretary of Congress, were the sole signers that day. Single page copies were printed for distribution again with only Hancock and Thomson's names on it. On July 19, Congres ordered the Declaration be engrossed (made into a larger document) on parchment and signed by all delegates. Most delegates signed it on August 2, 1776. The othe myth is that there is a map on the back. There is not.

Was the draft of the Declaration of Indepencance hidden in a tree?
No, the draft of the Declaration of Independence was not hidden in a tree. This is a myth that likely stems from stories about the secrecy surrounding its creation. The document was primarily drafted by Thomas Jefferson in June 1776 and was kept under wraps until it was officially adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776. While there were discussions and debates about the document, there is no historical evidence to suggest it was hidden in a tree.

In the Republican platform of 1856 the first resolve was "That the maintenance of the principles promulgated in the Declaration of Independence, and embodied in the Federal Constitution are essential to the preservation of our Republican institutions, and that the Federal Constitution, the rights of the States, and the union of the States, must and shall be preserved."

In what ways does Shaw's play depart from the meaning of the Pygmalion myth?
Shaw's play "Pygmalion" diverges from the original myth by focusing more on social class issues and the impact of education and language on identity. Unlike the myth where Pygmalion falls in love with his creation, Shaw's play emphasizes the transformation of Eliza's character and her assertion of independence. Additionally, the ending of Shaw's play differs from the myth by leaving the audience with an ambiguous conclusion rather than a traditional happy ending.
