I don't think that you have have religion (or society) without the presence of a narrative of history, which is usually pretty far removed from the actual events that took place.
Interestingly that is quite close to the anthropological definition of Mythology
a narrative of history which is, or may be, far removed from the actual events that took place.
When anthropologists use the term it in no way implies whether any given myth is based in truth or fiction.
