Title

I think 'mythology' might be a more user-friendly title than 'core narrative'. It's more likely to be the sort of thing people type into the search box, and when people see it they're more likely to understand immediately what it is. The fact that some of the stories may be partly or wholly true should, I suggest, not deter us from calling them myths, since that point is already dealt with in the text of the article. Also the use of 'narrative' in the singular implies an internally consistent story, whereas some Roman traditional stories are mutually contradictory (especially where several different stories exist to explain the origin of the same thing, or where essentially the same story is told about several different characters). - Cordus 14:45, 4 September 2007 (CEST)
