The term is most often used in this sense to describe religions founded by ancient societies, such as Roman mythology Greek mythology , and Norse mythology , which were nearly extinct at one time. However, it is important to keep in mind that while some view the Norse and Celtic pantheons as mere

Korean mythology Korean mythology The original religion of Korea was a form of the Eurasian Shamanism Taoism . There has been a mass conversion to Christianity amongst the population since the Korean War. After the Korean War Koreans became embarrassed about their own mythology and though many figures are still alive in the consciousness of the general population, much of the oral tradition about the relationship between the mythological figures has been lost. While Tangun is still remembered as a semi-historical dynasty, much else regarding the family of Gods he descends from has been brushed away from the national consciousness. A prime example of this was during the 1988 Summer Olympic Games when there was a crack-down on the genuine local shamans out of embarrassment. There are now very few practitioners of the ancient Korean religions in Seoul and charlatans have quickly gobbled up the former shaman audience in the quest to exploit people seeking spirituality.
