Why are Myths retold? (BM # 14)

Why are Myths retold? Why do we read Myths over and over?
Is it because they are ancient? 
Is it because they involve gods, demi-gods and the like?
Is it because they have morals formulated for humankind?
Is it because of the beauty of narration?
Is it because of the plethora of characters offering a multitude of views and perspectives?
Is it because they portray or might portray the ways and lives of our ancestors?
Is it because they provide the perfect canvas for fantasy?
