The Greeks told myths to tell stories of the past or they used ledgends
Allegedly Aesop.
Fables have been around as long as the human race. Some of the most popular fables that exist are those by Aesop.
The poet Homer composed them during the 700 B.C. Homer based these epics on stories about a war between Greece and the city of Troy.
Since the dawn of man he/she has made myths and fables to explain a world they didn't understand. Since there was no writing it is impossible to tell you the exact time and place this happened, but many of the legends, myths, and fables we have today come to us from thousands of years of man.
:Fables are lessens with moral values while myths tell stories of gods and heros.
Aesop is important because he wrote great fables.
One of the best fables is The Ant and the Grasshopper. Fables are great stories to tell children in order to teach them a lesson.

To teach people lessons or give advice on how to live.
The fables are called 'The Aesop Fables'. A weird name Aesop.
Fables are stories that have been passed down through generations that revolve around a moral, so the importance is essentially enforcing a moral in a 'fun' way, when you tell a child an interesting story that is based on a moral, they are bound to remember it.
Perhaps not. The Greeks were no strangers to rhetorical devices and such subtle references would not be invisible to them. However you have asked a question where the answer is so lost to a very obscure past it is impossible to verify.
Only in fables - there is no evidence that there has ever been a flying unicorn. Greeks had myths of flying horses, although there were not generally depicted with horns.
It was their religion. They used it the same way that we use ours: to define those things which cannot be defined or explained.
Yes they are. Because fables are fiction stories only that have talking animals as their characters while legends are stories that attempt to tell the origin of a particular subject believed to have one.
A fable is a type of story. Aesop's fables are the fables invented by the famed fabalist Aesop.
