Mythology





The word mythología [μυθολογία] appears in Plato, but was used as a general term for "fiction" or "story-telling" of any kind.

Mythology:  mỹthos [μῦθος, "narrative, fiction"] and -logía [-λογία, discourse, able to speak about.
The Greek loanword mythos and Latinate mythus both appeared in English before the first example of myth in 1830.

 From its earliest use in reference to a collection of traditional stories or beliefs.

Until the seventeenth or eighteenth-century, mythology was similarly used to mean a moral fable or a parable.

                             Mythology implies the story that hides the philosophical truth.
