  6. The Greeks created myths to explain the world. Earthquakes, floods, changing seasons, harvesting crops, good fortune, stars twinkling, sun setting, moon rising, etc. To keep the gods happy, the Greeks built great temples to honor the gods…..as well as making statues, festivals, feast days, and even the Olympic Games!

  7. Ancient Greek literature provides some of the world’s greatest poems and stories. • Homer and his epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey. • Sappho and her Lyric Poetry – poems and lyrics set to music • Aesop’s Fables – told stories to teach people lessons

  8. Aesop’s Fable – “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” • There was once a young Shepherd Boy who tended his sheep at the foot of a mountain near a dark forest. It was rather lonely for him all day, so he thought upon a plan by which he could get a little company and some excitement. He rushed down towards the village calling out “Wolf, Wolf,” and the villagers came out to meet him, and some of them stopped with him for a considerable time. This pleased the boy so much that a few days afterwards he tried the same trick, and again the villagers came to his help. But shortly after this a Wolf actually did come out from the forest, and began to worry the sheep, and the boy of course cried out “Wolf, Wolf,” still louder than before. But this time the villagers, who had been fooled twice before, thought the boy was again deceiving them, and nobody stirred to come to his help. So the Wolf made a good meal off the boy’s flock, and when the boy complained, the wise man of the village said: • “A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the truth.”

  9. Greek literature lives on and influences our world even today. • The works of ancient Greek writers including Homer, Sappho and Aesop are still alive and read today. • Language • A long journey is called an “odessey”, after Homer’s Odessey • Something very large and powerful is called “titanic” after the Titans, • The planets are named after the gods • Literature and the Arts • Painters and sculptors have used the gods in their work • movies are about the gods • and sports teams use mythical names as mascots.
