How many years have Greek myths been circulating so far?
Greek mythology has been circulating for 2800 years. Greek mythology is the spiritual product of primitive clan society and the earliest literary form in Europe. It came into being in the 8th century BC, and formed a basic scale on the basis of long-term oral spread of ancient Greek aborigines and reference to myths spread to Greece and other countries. Later, it was recorded in Homer's epic, hesiod's genealogy, ancient Greek poetry, drama, history and philosophy, and later generations arranged it into modern ancient Greek fairy tales.

Mythical narration plays an important role in almost all Greek literature. However, these stacks are the only manuscripts of Greek mythology paintings preserved from ancient Greece. This book contains a lot of original materials about Greek mythology (such as the genealogy of the gods), mainly heroic mythology, and is an important document for modern scholars to study ancient Greek mythology. Because Apollo Dolores, who lived from 180 BC to 120 BC, completed many related works according to him, he is now used to calling the author of this book pseudo Apollo Dolores.
