Can Mythology be apart of History?

May be, it depends how well we correlate our history with mythology. But in some ancient civilizations like India, Greece u indeed find many similarities.

The only written and known record of Atlantis was what Plato the Greek Philosopher wrote about it in his work Timeus. \n\nYou should check it out. You can find this short essay free on\nwww.gutenberg.org or put THE GUTENBERG PROJECT on your Internet browser.\n\nAtlantis Mythology does not exist, but many fictional stories had been made that includes Gods in the media (TV, movies, etc) recently, but thats it only good ole 20th century fiction.

How about this version of the myth?

Yes. All of the myths and legends must have come from some truth and I believe that anything's possible.

If God is a myth then he cannot be from any planet since mythical characters by definition are not real.\n\nIf "in ancient myth" is removed from the question the answer is yes, if he exists, unless you believe God originates on this planet, which would seem to contradict most if not all deistic beliefs.\n\nMy point is that really, almost all conceptions of God are that he does not originate on earth, is therefore "from another planet", and thus an alien. The next question is, "are we aliens too?"

Yes they should be merged, the nonsense other people believe in we call mythology, the nonsense we believe in we call religion. The religions of today will be the mythologies of tomorrow.

Gods are creatures of myths, but most ancient cultures had some form of higher being looking over them. So gods are common conceptions.\n\nHowever, mythology is usually based on older civilizations, so if it's a modern day Deity it is considered religion or urban legend, as opposed to a myth.

There are a couple like how earth was created (Or WHY)\nWhy roses have thorns\nWhy there is a sun or moon in the sky\nWhy A Tiger has stripes\nHow lions got their manes\nHow Rome was created\nThe floods of the Nile River\nWhy there are deserts on earth\n       Just have fun with it, maybe you can come up with your own myths and legends.

I like Greek mythology better than any other.  Every character seems to come alive.  Every story fits in with the world as it is.  It is not really about, say, how spiders came to be, or why there are echoes, it really is a guide to life and how to live it.  Oh, and by the way, the boulder guy's name was Sisyphus.

The answer fits into your scheme and curiously mirrors their “question.” While a group (let’s call them pro-science) has evolved past accepting mythological explanations, some other groups of the original (pre-scientific) species have not evolved. I hope my answer doesn’t drive them bananas.

the phoenix in native american mythology rose from it's own ashes.  I don't know if that counts or not.

Take your question to "books and literature". Frankenstein isn't folklore or mythology. No civilization has expressed a shared reverence for Frankenstein.
