Best Answer

He was a strolling bard, who went from city to city doing performances singing the old stories, amongst them his own versions of the Iliad and The Odyssey.

These were popular versions and, as writing was becoming popular in the Greek world, his version was written down and has survived to today, while the other versions by hundreds of other bards have disappeared.
