The belief that the sun or moon is being eaten, or other wise permanently removed or changed, and that this is happening because of punishment by the gods. Furthermore, that some kind of intervention (eg prayer, sacrifice, etc) could appease the gods and cause the sun to return. Because it seemed to work (the sun came back) people kept doing it. However from Early History, in China and Greece, people had discovered the cause of ecllipses, and were even able to forecast them.
