What are examples of a myth?

Answer 1

A really old myth that comes from a number of cultures is that if a bird flies into your house, someone will die. I been in a number of houses where birds have gotten in and flown about; no one died following the incidents.

Different tribes and societies had beliefs of famine, flood, disease, or other calamity that was portended by an eclipse of the sun.
