With the word mythology, two concepts are designated: the collection of myths and legends of a people and the study of them. The word comes from the Greek mythos, meaning fable and logos, treatise. The idea of a fable should not lead us to believe that it is a whimsical fiction of the imagination. Inside the mythical narrative is hidden an aspect, a core that contains a truth. Hellenic mythology is one of the most brilliant conceptions that mankind has produced, and for it, nothing is unthinkable. Even in mathematics the Greeks ignore the zero. Myth consists of this "perennial history": it is the history of events that are eternal, because they simply repeat themselves.
