Myths were created to tell stories about gods and goddesses. My favorite myth was when Athena was challenged by Arachni and Arachni won so Athena turned her into a spider (arachnid). I liked this myth because someone was turned into a spider.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to tell stories of what others did and the good or bad consequences. For example, Arachne challenged Athena at art and Arachne thought she was better than Athena. As a result, because she made a hubris, she became. These myths are passed on to the others who believe in the myths.
ReplyDeleteto entertain people, the one about the trojan war because they cheated
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to entertain people and to explain natural events. I think my favorite myth the War of Troy. It is a very good story and it made a awesome movie.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to entertain people, they also told stories of Gods and Godesses and thier relationship with mortals and the world. My favorite myth was when Athena was challenged by Arachni. Leading to Athena turning Arachni into a spider. Arachnid is now the scientific word for spiders.
ReplyDeleteThey were created to tell a story or explain something natural. My favorite is when Posiedon got jealous of Zues and Zues sent him to the ocean and thats how he became the God of the sea.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to explain why natural things are the way they are. My favorite was about Pandora and the box that she opened.
ReplyDeletemyths were created to tell stories of what happened long ago.My favorite myth was the one were athena challenged arachne and she was turned into a spider.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to entertain people, and explain nature. My favorite myth was when Pandora opened the chest. I likes how almost everything was lost, and terrible things happened, but hope was still there. I like how it symbolizes that hope is the one thing that is always with us, and will never leave.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to tell different stories about gods and goddesses that were probably a form of entertainment and culture back in those times. In my opinion, the myth I enjoyed the most was the myth about how Athena got jealous of Arachne's woven art and Athena got so upset, she turned Arachne into a spider. I enjoyed this myth the most because it reminds me how sometimes jealousy can get the best of everyone and how can get to a point where people can get hurt physically and mentally.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to entertain people and tell stories. My favorite was when Athena turned Arachne into a spider after Arachne said she was a better weaver then Athena!
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to tell stories that entertain people and tell why natural events happen. For example why it thunders and such. My favorite myth was when Athena thought she was the best at weaving cloth but, Arachne thought she was the best. So Athena challenged her to see who could make the best cloth. In the end Arachne won but Athena didn't want that so she turned her into a spider. That is my favorite myth even though what Athena did was wrong.
ReplyDeleteThey where created as a way to explain the things that happen in nature that cannot be explained scientifically, at the time in which the myth was created. As science proves how things work, myths become false completely, and shouldn't even be thought about, sense it makes no sense at all to believe in something that is utterly false, and you do not need to waste that precious time wasting your energy in nothing that is true. It is always wise to learn to use your facts, and to never trust a false friend, or a false fact, as it could lead you into more trouble then good.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to tell the stories of the gods and goddesses a long time ago. They were created to tell people about the things that happened back then too. My favorite myth was the myth when Athena turned Arachne into a spider. And that's how we got the word Arachnid for spiders!!
ReplyDeleteIn the process of creating these myths, we seem to look at the entertainment side, more then why they where created. They where created to explain the natural and unnatural things that happen, that we cannot explain. In the process year after year, story tellers around the world add on to it. the originals myths, are far from what we think they are today. Most of the myths we think about today where created a long time ago, and when they where created, they were far from what they are today. I just though it would be wise of me to explain that, as it is a good point to point out those kinds of things, instead of misleading people.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to explain the mysteries of life that people had no other way to explain. They were also created to entertain people. My favorite myth was when Athena turned Arachind into a spider.
ReplyDeleteThey were created to tell stories about gods and goddesses probably for entertainment purposes. My favorite myth was when Athena challenged the girl to a weaving contest and when she was about to lose she turned the girl into a spider
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to tell stories about the gods and goddess. My favorite myth was about aracnid and she thought she could make these pictures better then the gods and she did. so then the goddess turned her into a spider because the goddess was very mad at her and they lived happily ever after. Ecept Spiderwoman.
ReplyDeleteWell I would have to say the one about Helious's son. I forget his name but I do remember that he drove his fathers chariot into the ocean. This is my favorite myth because Helious's son showed courage to do something he wanted to do. I also think that myths were invented to tell the stories of nature and of things in life that some people couldn't explain. These stories were told to many people and where changed ove the years.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to explain certain things in life and nature that people had know explanation for. They were also created for entertaninment. I would have to say that my favorite myth is the myth about how Athena lost to Arachne in an art contest and turned her into a spider. I think this myth was cool because it explains where scientists got the scientific name for spiders.
ReplyDeleteThey were created to explain natural things that happen. My favorite myth was when Athena challenged that one lady to a wool spinning contest. Then she turned her into a spider. This was my favorite because that one girl got punished for challenging a master at art and a Goddes.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite myth was probably the one where Athena turned Arachne into a spider,
ReplyDelete[because it's the only one I remember.. heheh..]
but i thought it was interesting that it's where we got the word arachnid, for spider.
Well, I guess the Greek percieved it like that.
Myths were created to tell why something is the way it is.
It's an entertaining story, but it's also to explain and 'educate'.

Myths were created to tell stories about the Roman and Greek Gods and Goddesses. My Favorite Myth was when Apollo's son drives the sun chariot, crashes, and then dies.

Myth- a story based on a god and godess
ReplyDeleteMy favorite myth was the one where Archni challenged Athena and because of that Archni got turned into a spider.
I think myths were created because they wanted to explain things they couldn't really explain. Like things in nature that people didn't understand. My favorite myth was when Athena got jealous of Arachne's skills in weaving and turned her into a spider. This one's my favorite because Athena uses magical powers.
ReplyDeleteI think myths were created to entertain and to tell story about gods and goddesses. My favorite myth is the one about Athena turning Arachnie into a spider because she chanlenged her.

ReplyDeleteWell I thought about it, and maybe i shouldn't have said that the story with Athena and Arachne was my favorite because it was the only one I remembered.
ReplyDeleteThat might get me in trouble, :)
So... I guess I'll say that... I like... hummm... the story with the trojian horse. (Spelling?) I enjoy that one because it was filled with trickery and sneaky things. :D
Myths were created to entertain. They were also created to tell stories about why things happen, like waves, horses, and weather. My favorite myth was the one about the chariot of Helios because my family just had transportation problems.
ReplyDeleteMyths were created to explain things that people to do and explain how things in nature happen. My favorite myth is the one where Archne is very good at weaving so she challenges Athena and wins so Athena turns Arachne into a spider.
