Myths vs Legends


There are many stories about great heroes and some are called myths and others legends but you never thought about what those two mean. Some people might think there the same but there are similarities and differences. In legends they talk about how the great hero Robin Hood helps people and saves the poor but he didn’t do that although he did exist. Although in a myth the is no evidence or support of anything that happened. Legends happen earthier past time or back in history while myths are in both. Legends have real facts that are exaggerated or disoriented while myths have facts about how events came to be like earth quakes. Most legends talk about heroes but myths talk more about Greek gods and how they get anger at the humans. The Oddesy is a myth since there is no evidence that any of this existed.
