Greek Mythology

• A Greek myth is a magical story involving Greek gods,   monsters and heroes.
• The stories are made up but: they have a "life lesson" (be   brave, respect the gods, etc.)
• they may be based on a true event (for example: the Trojan   War)
• Until 800 BC these myths were passed on by oral tradition.   Later, they were written down.
