The idea of \u200b\u200bmyth has been internalized by all societies and even today is misunderstood as a synonym for lies and when certain people, situations or things possess qualities, excellence or items that break the logic that we consider "normal", we feel the need to seek an explanation, but since there is no earthly give the characteristic of a myth, because in this way can we explain that which disturbs the collective consciousness of human beings and soothe the anxiety. To understand more precisely, we recall the principle of Theogony which tells us that:
When the Greeks opened their eyes to the world, saw the sky and earth, and among them many things of diverse nature and lineage, animated ones, gods and men, beasts and plants, demigods and monsters ...; inanimate other, mountains and rivers, seas and deserts ... Then he asked where begins the genealogy or ancestry of things, of gods, men, of all nature, and just as Mycenaean kings ordered the life of a territory, often fighting with other territories and kings and figured that had happened in the world. From that thread and begin to pull the wool will gradually winding, cutting and sewing, mending and assembling stories and stories from ages and places, accommodating them to feel at every moment, in a continuous present, however, that updates what happened a thousand years or vice versa.
The various theories of creation, brought together under the term "cosmology", seeking an explanation for the existence of the first gods, not humans, as in the Judeo-Christian concept, because for the Greeks it was obvious men were the result of ingenuity and power of their gods.
The idea of \u200b\u200bthe great goddess mother in a matriarchal religious conception in which the concept of fatherhood had not yet been discovered, remained for long in the Greek mind, as was the case in all primitive cultures. Adored and feared, obeyed and blessed by all, the matriarch, the only existing deity, whose mission was to defend the home and maternal fertility, received a public and domestic worship.
However, when it was revealed clearly the relationship between sex, pregnancy and childbirth, this explanatory model is broken and the world are shattered, all the elements without order or hierarchy wandered and began to break through new theories of origin. Thus, the sun shone, the moon did not come out at night and the sea had no banks. The cold and heat, drought and humidity, heavy and light, all collide. Chaos was therefore nothing or antimatter, a magma formed by all elements in disarray, the essence and attributes.
Whatever the explanation for this complex design, soon gave rise to various stories that dealt with clarifying the transition from chaos to the gods known.
