Greeks

The Greeks believed in 12 Olympians, or Gods and Goddesses, that are all gods or goddesses of different elements and emotions.  They also had philosophers that were very smart. They were Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle they all had very intelligent theories that they are famous for.  The Greeks had their own there own alphabet and it changed throughout time and eventually we used them for our letters.  So if it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t be able to right this right now because I wouldn’t have an alphabet.  They were very athletic and had created the Olympic Games which still go on in this time.  If it wasn’t for the Greek we would not have too much going on today because they were so smart. They were very advanced for there time period.  The Greeks did a lot of very finely crafted sculptures and other wonderful pieces of art.  I feel like all the artists of today have Greek decent in them because I feel as if the Greeks were the exponentially great at works of art.  They also did a lot of writing back then because of the lack of televisions.  They told stories and read stories that they have heard or they knew.  One man who was a very good story teller was Homer. He was a blind poet that had told of this amazing individual in books called the Iliad and the Odyssey.  They had these extravagant buildings still standing today called the Parthenon.  That is the Greeks for ya.
