A community is the largest unit of the society. Society is a collection of several communities that have a common agreement. In everyday life they make a mutual agreement both oral and written in life. The agreement was made. There are mutually agreed rules, norms and values for mutual preservation among the people. One unique example is to look at a society that lives in a shared environment that then guard each other by agreeing on a common myth. Society does not object to the myth, the people accept the myth willingly without having to express likes or dislikes. An example of this is folklore about Dampu Awang.
