2024-09-10 22:48
I've read and heard many myths and legends, but after learning some scientific knowledge, I'm full of doubts. Was it real or fictional?
1 answer

Myths were usually real, and they were an important manifestation of human culture. They reflected human exploration and understanding of nature, society, the universe, and other aspects. The authenticity of myths can be discussed from different angles. From the origin of myths, they can often be traced back to the observation and explanation of natural or social phenomena by ancient humans, so they are likely to be real, but after a long period of oral inheritance and evolution, they gradually evolved into myths. Some of the stories and characters in myths may be real, such as the gods and heroes in ancient Greek mythology. Their images and stories have gradually formed the myths that people are familiar with today after a long period of evolution and inheritance. Mythology also contains many social, cultural, religious and other factors, such as the religious beliefs of ancient society, the spread and influence of myths and legends, etc. These factors may also affect the evolution and development of myths. Therefore, myths were both real and had gradually evolved into today's manifestation after a long period of evolution and inheritance.

Many characters and events were depicted as real in novels, and some of them even had traces in history. Although the background and elements of the story of the prehistoric era came from myths and legends, it was also given a sense of reality and fiction in online literature. Many of the worlds in online literature were actually constructed according to the author's own imagination and creativity. Therefore, the prehistoric era could be regarded as a real era or a fictional era, depending on how it was understood and interpreted.
