The word itself comes from the Greek word "mythos" meaning "story." I believe myths started in Greece, but were quickly developed all around the world, by people telling stories about gods and goddesses to explain natural things like thunder and lightning; Zeus' work in Greece, Thor's in Germanic Europe.

Myths have been used by various cultures throughout history to explain natural phenomena, teach moral lessons, and preserve societal values. They often stem from early societies' attempts to understand and make sense of the world around them, incorporating elements of imagination, storytelling, and cultural beliefs. Myths can evolve over time through oral tradition, religious practices, and artistic expressions.
