Mousakka doesn't come from greece. it is not a Greek food, its name is arabic I think but it is a turkish dish which is cooked in Turkey,the middle east, in most of the balkan countries including Greece, mainly in the regions which were ruled by Turks for centuries.
Some popular Greek dishes to try include moussaka (a layered casserole with eggplant and meat), souvlaki (grilled skewers of meat), spanakopita (spinach and feta cheese pie), and baklava (a sweet pastry with nuts and honey).
Greek culture today is rich and diverse, encompassing elements such as language, cuisine, literature, and traditions. The modern Greek language, a direct descendant of ancient Greek, reflects the country’s historical continuity. Greek cuisine, known for dishes like moussaka and souvlaki, showcases the Mediterranean diet and local ingredients. Additionally, festivals celebrating ancient traditions, music, and dance continue to play a vital role in contemporary Greek life, connecting the past with the present.
Yes, tzatziki is considered an ancient Greek dish. It is made with yogurt, cucumber, garlic, and often includes herbs like dill or mint. Tzatziki has been a staple in Greek cuisine for centuries and is typically served as a dip or sauce alongside various dishes.

Moussaka is a dish of meat and vegetables which originates from Greece. It involves layering aubergine with a spiced meat filling which is topped with a creamy bechamel sauce.
moussaka, stifado, greek salad, souvlaki. Obviously there are loads more.
The dishes you are mentioning are totally different. For one, shepherds pie is an Irish dish made with a type of meat stew and topped with mashed potatoes and is typically mild on spice and flavor allowing the flavor of the meat to dominate the dish. Moussaka is an Greek dish of eggplant and ground lamb with bechamel sauce on top and baked. I've made both and you can spice the ground lamb with garlic, oregano, and saute with some red wine if you'd like.
Some tradtional Greek foods are... - Greek salad - Souvlaki - Spanakopita (spinach pie) - Moussaka And many more you can look up on the internet! =P
