The correct answer is "D".

A myth is considered as a traditional story within a group of people that represent a certain society. This tale narrates stories about individuals who belonged to the first groups of this society and often includes supernatural elements to the events that occur.

Myths are seen as a cultural landmark in societies. Many cultural practices that are practiced until nowadays derive from these stories.
