Legends can be passed on orally or through writing. In Greece, stories and legends such as The Odyssey, and The Illiad were told orally. Myths and legends, used to explain the unexplainable, have always been passed down from person to person through a family. This method, however, had one flaw. Often times, the story could be slightly altered, intentionally or not, from person to person. I believe this is the reason that many societies and cultures had people trained specifically to be storytellers.
Many legends were written down as well. In prehistoric times, stories were told through cave writings and passed down through families. Writings like this would often tell stories of great hunts, or how to bring down certain prey. With the advent of written language, story books became the prominent way of recording legens and myths.
