Can someone explain what a cultural myth is?

I have to write a paper for my English class but i don’t understand exactly what a cultural myth is

Answer #1

A cultural myth is something that a specific cultures believes that isn’t true. It can be a story, a practice or a belief. Unfortunately I cannot think of a single one at this specific stage.

Answer #2

Well, the first thing that comes to mind for me is the russian story of baba yaga, I’d say that is a cultural myth.

Answer #3

Made me think of the lochness monster (isn’t that a cultural myth in Scottland?)

Answer #4

Hmm, yeah I suppose it is, though that’s also categorized as a cryptid.

Answer #5

i think its like a myth that a culture belives in. Like mexico beleives in elchubracobra (cant spell)

Answer #6

Here’s a good example of one I’m sure everyone has heard of: Santa Claus.
