There were fables, lyrical poems, epics, and other literature types in ancient Greece. Fables were short stories that taught a lesson. Aesop wrote many fables that we still read and enjoy today. Lyrical poems were poems set to music. Epics were extremely long poems that told a story. Homer wrote the Iliad, an epic about the Trojan War, and the Odyssey, an epic about the adventures of Oddyseus.
