In ancient Greece, the works of Homer were so highly regarded as examples of Greek literature, that they were universally the textbooks of choice for learning to read and write Greek. They were also, in many ways, the 'Bible' of the Greek religion, so that students were learning the fundamentals of both Greek and religion.

Even as late as the nineteenth century, some parents taught their children to read from the Christian Bible, if formal schooling was impracticable.
