Sacred texts held significant importance in ancient Greek culture, shaping their religious beliefs and practices. While they did not have a single, centralized holy book like some other cultures, they revered and consulted various texts for religious guidance. The most notable of these were the Homeric epics, the Iliad, and the Odyssey, attributed to the poet Homer. These epic poems served as foundational narratives of Greek mythology and provided moral, cultural, and historical lessons. Other sacred texts included the works of Hesiod, the writings of the playwrights Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, as well as the philosophical texts of Plato and Aristotle. These texts influenced Greek religious rituals, ethical frameworks, and the understanding of the divine.
