Stories (also known as fables or myths), were passed down orally instead of through writing until the seventh century B.C. because the ancient Greeks thought that doing it this way, that these great poems grew, being added to and gradually shaped through the years.

Without TV, they needed entertainment and loved to hear the strolling bard scome to town and sing the stories of their old heroes and their deeds, as in The Iliad and The Odyssey (each took three nights to perform).

All religions contain stories about the holy persons, not only the Greek one.

The Ancient Greeks would tell their stories through speech, odes, poems, songs, plays, vase paintings, written on papaya, sculptures or friezes on temples, homes or sanctuaries.
