Answers
History is a factfile of past events relating to ancient people, their
culture, tradition, customs and the various sociopolitical aspects happening
from times immemorial, which draws its roots to the social fabric of the
present days society.
Whereas, legends are
primarily based on myths, i.e., half truth and half lie in order to mystify the
historical truth. Human nature has certain weaknesses and the most dangerous
one is that the superstitious people of olden times were more or less raconteurs
and took great interest and joy in mystifying past figures of historical
importance. These figures may be their army generals, emperors, kings or
spiritual people like prophets and apostles. Gradually, simple people forming
the masses would make it their forte to mention the legendary figures with
great awe and fascination.
