The Legend Myths Stories
Originated from Latin legendus, legend means "something which ought to be read." According to J. A. Cuddon, a legend is "a story or narrative that lies somewhere between myth and historical fact and which, as a rule, is about a particular figure or person." Traditionally, a legend is a narrative that focuses on a historically or geographically specific figure, and describes his exploits. Similar to a myth, a legend can provide an etymological narrative, often filling in historical gaps. All Stories are not belong to me. I'm just a fan of Myths and Legend Stories.

The Minoans, also known as the Keiftu, were real, and they were the first people to challenge the Gods. They would fail, but not because of Olympian intervention.
