Greek Mythology

overview

greek mythology is not a scripture. there is no canonical text, no founding prophet, no council that fixed the stories — only a sprawling, self-contradicting body of tales told and retold for over a thousand years, from bronze-age hymns to roman verse. the myths were the connective tissue of greek life: they explained the cosmos, named the gods you sacrificed to, decorated the temple you walked past, and supplied the plots of the plays you watched at a state festival. to read them as mere fairy tales is to miss that a greek farmer, athlete, sailor and playwright all lived inside this material. 𐃏
