List at least 3 characteristics of myths

1: Myths are usually told to give explanations about natural events that confused them (Zeus was partly made as a way to explain lightning)
2: They are culture-based stories with usually a hero or god protagonist
3: Myths are told and spread, lots of times altering them or their story line, but keeping a similar main plot line

Hope this helps
