I have seen Alamat ni bernardo Carpio on the internet. But may i ask, are legends also considered as myths? aren't they alamat?

According to my research legends are based on some kind of truth or fact. However, as it gets passed through the ages, the facts surrounding that one truth become mixed up. Then when the truth is totally lost it becomes myth.

This is a great website for several mythologies. I hope it helps.

I'm not sure if these will be the kinds of myths you're looking for but I really like www.snopes.com It's in English, I'm sorry. There are tons of myths, urban legends and wives tales on it. It tells whether they are true or false and explains where they came from or how they started. Hope you find something!

Well I'm not sure what type of myth you are looking for but you could start here: http://www.pantheon.org/ It's the encycolpedia Mythica. It gives a little bit about different myths and has links to other sites for more information. I hope that helps.
