Myths are stories which are probably not entirely true or factual, either because they are based on events that occurred outside written history, or because they were from unsupported or contradictory accounts. Ancient myths were often connected to the explanation of natural phenomena as the work of divine beings or supernatural influences. As the physical world was better understood, the epic tales became folklore, but many may be based on actual persons or occurrences.
