Myths were considered sacred tales that were passed down orally from generation to generation to explain phenomena and teach moral lessons. They depicted common human behaviors, problems, and nature in a way that has resonated with people for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks used myths to explain origins and the natural world, as well as to convey models of both good and bad behavior. Key Greek myths included Cronus overthrowing Uranus and being overthrown by Zeus, and the Judgment of Paris which led to the Trojan War.

The Greek creation myth held that in the beginning there was only chaos. Gaia (Earth) and Uranus (Sky) emerged and had children, including the Titans.

CLAS220 - Lecture Notes for January 17, 2012
Hesiod wrote Theogony to tell the story of the Greek gods and their origins through a highly factual narrative. The poem focused on recounting genealogies and events rather than explaining meanings or purposes. For ancient Greek audiences, satisfying their interest in recognizing gods and remembering myths may have been purpose enough for a poetic work like Theogony. The lecture suggests Hesiod adopted an "epic view of the world" that prioritized factual recollection over conceptual understanding.

Greek Mythology
In the whole of Western culture, the most fertile and rich collection of stories is found in Greek mythology. This is if the Bible is excluded. These stories are diverse; however, they try to share a similar outlook on life (Slater, 2014). The Greeks believed in living life to the fullest since they cherished it. Death was a fact that was inevitable to them. There were small groups that believed in the idea of resurrection, such as mystery cults. It was dismal to homer death. Life in its way was glorious, thrilling, and dangerous in certain ways. Perishing of an ordinary person was believed to be accompanied by that of the mightiest heroes and the great royal dynasties. However, this idea of death did not make the Greeks be sad because it contained the Babylonian scribes that were written of Gilgamesh. The response of Greeks was enthusiasm. According to them, the only answer to death was to make carve of the legend that is imperishable by magnificent deeds. Throughout the five centuries, that is, from Homer to Alexander the Great, the Greets directed much of their effort and attention on pursuing fame. The astonishing energy was used to pursue fame. They were a unique race since they were imaginative, hard-living, ambitious, restless, and tough. They were very touchy about their honor due to the lust for their reputation. Most of them were vengeful and feisty. All of these traits in abundance are very clear in their stories.
The Greek qualities are mirrored faithfully in the Olympian Gods. Some of these qualities are fornicating, banqueting, unforgiving deities who liked warring, and quarrelsome. They were shown in the form of humans with powerful and beautiful bodies. They were very pleasing to the eye and also humanly intelligible. These people had a strong admiration for intelligence, beauty, and strength. The man was the measure of all things according to them (Dowden, 2014).
There are a few mythologies that have managed to produce a similar wealth of heroes. This was because the Greeks had a very strong urge for fame. Their heroes had desirable characters. They were fighters and adventurers. They were also bold, clever, strong, fierce, and experienced. The accomplishments of these heroes were far beyond that of ordinary humans. Irrespective of being perfect, there were some failings. Some of them were ruined by the failings. Some of these failings are cruelty (that emerged from their success), over-ambitious, overweening pride, and rashness among others. Ambition was very intense in the Greek heroes. There those who aspired godlike powers. All these were a model of human excellence because they gave the youths in the society standards to imitate.
This same ambivalence is evident in the legend of the tragic dynasty. .
