Myth is a very effective and complex concept in people's lives, which always shows itself in a different way.

Gods and active inhabitants are a part of mythology that have more of a religious function and according to this role, they have undergone more changes over time. Therefore, the question arises whether there are any traces of these myths left today or not?
