Summary: The history of civilizations is full of myths. Apart from the obvious tangible heritage there is a vast amount of intangible heritage in world history. “A culture keeps its tangible heritage in things like buildings, art, craft and other artifacts. It keeps its intangible heritage in mythologies and art such as literature, music, dance, and rituals…. The mythology of a nation doesn’t emerge from the history of the nation; instead, by means of the mythology of the nation, the history of the nation is composed.” While the history of the nation settles in its books, its myths, art and culture live through the people.
