Most early Ancient Greek writing was used for administrative purposes but as time progressed it was used for recording history and artistic endeavors. Literacy was probably as low as 5% so most work was still recited to the masses.
The earliest form of Greek was Linear B, not really an alphabet but a combination of phonetic sounds and pictograms. This language died out for no apparent reason, and didn't evolve into anything. Classical Greek appeared about 400 years later, sprouting from Phoenician.
