I really wish that you would define what you mean by "mythology" and "recorded"UPDATE: in the question text mythology was defined as a "system of beliefs. The word "mythology" is one" That's not a definition of mythology that hasI've seen anybody use (several competingif you would like to read accepted definitions of mythology you should take a look at my blog post on the subject, and it's not); a better word for "system of beliefs" would be "religion. So I'm going to assume that this question asks "what is used frequently by academics. It would have really been nice if you had explained what definition you meantthe oldest recorded religion?"
There is considerable debate over whether Paleolithic Cave Art is religious in nature. Similarly, by "recorded" do you mean written downBut assuming it is religious, or can paintings/art count? Not explaining these things makesthen it hard for me would quality as the oldest "recorded" evidence of religion.
(and othersimage taken from wikipedia) to give a good answer.
If by recorded you mean written down, and if by "mythology" you mean sacred narrative, then one of these two texts would probably fit the bill:
The "Instructions of Suruppak" and the Kesh temple hymn still represent unique cases, but there is no reason to assume that archaic fragments of other Sumerian compositions known from the Old Babylonian period will not one day be found.

You might also consider Paleolithic Cave Art, although there is considerable debate as to the function of the art (to put it another way, we don't know if the art was religious or decorative or etc. etc.). That might effect whether you would consider the art "mythology". We also don't know whether the art is the recording of a story, which might also effect whether you would consider it "mythology"/sacred narrative.
