Greek and Roman mythology: did the ancients KNOW they were myths?
Is there anyone here who knows a lot about Greek or Roman mythology?
I'm curious as to why their beliefs are always referred to as "mythology". Does this imply that the Greeks and Romans were well aware that their gods, creation stories, etc, were all inventions?
If they believed them to be genuine, however, then why would we use the terms "Greek mythology" and "Roman mythology" when we don't use "Christian mythology", "Muslim mythology", etc, for current religions?
Thanks for any answers.
But we DO use the term "mythology" for the study of unsubstantiated stories about the origins and workings and beliefs of ancient peoples, including the Judeo-Christian traditions. That's why there are ongoing archaeological and anthropological studies in the Middle East to get to the origins of the creation "stories" or myths in Genesis, the stories of the Garden of Eden, the Great Flood, and so on. Once substantiated, the stories can be removed from the "myth" column--or they can be better understood as "myth based on substantiated fact."
For contrast, two myths that arose from that part of the world are the story of Atlantis, a land that sank beneath the sea, and the story of Pompeii, the city that was buried beneath the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. Excavation proved that there IS a buried city at Pompeii. Atlantis' location is still elusive.
