How did echos originate?
The usual origin myth for Echo was probably invented by the Roman poet Ovid in the first century BC. According to Ovid, Echo was a wood-nymph who fell in love with the beautiful youth Narcissus. But Echo could only repeat what had just been said to her, so Narcissus found her a tiresome companion (and anyway, Narcissus had fallen in love with his own reflection). Echo pined away with love of Narcissus, until only her voice remained. Narcissus became a daffodil gazing longingly at its own loveliness beside a mountain pool. And they all lived happily ever after.
What are some great myths about sound?
One great myth about sound was the myth about Echo, a minor goddess. Echo was a beautiful goddess who said something rude to Hera she shouldn't have. Hera put a curse on her so she couldn't form her own words, but only repeat others words. Now, Hades thought Echo was beautiful and was going to take her as his wife, but a man named Narcissus. All day, Echo waited for the hunter to say something so she could repeat it. One day Narcissus looked at his reflection in a pool. He saw the most handsome man he had every seen. "I love you," he said to the image. "I love you," repeated Echo, but Narcissus never new she was there. Narcissus sat there watching his reflection until he wasted away. Echo was grieved that Narcissus didn't love her and she too wasted away. Sometimes we can still hear Echo repeating our words and how she gradually fades away thinking of her lost love.

What myth is Narcissism?
It starts off as Zeus cheating on Hera. Echo tells Hera a lie so Hera will not discover he was cheating. Zeus gives Echo a gift thanking her , but Hera finds out. So Hera casts a spell on Echo so she can only repeat what others say. Narcissus happened to be in the woods at the time and he was so beautiful Echo fell in love with him. Narcissus did not like echo because she would only repeat what he said and got annoyed. Echo heartbroken prayed to Aphrodite the Goddess of Love who took pity on Echo. She had Narcissus fall in love with him self with a reflection in the water, Narcissus believing that it was a water Nymph stayed at the water trying to coax her out. Turning into a flower. Aphrodite let Echo rest in peace but couldn't bear to lose the sound of Echo's voice so she kept it whispering in the wind.
