Oral and written literature are the sources behind "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, oral literature refers to the ancient body of Greek creation stories, legends and myths. It particularly includes that body native to Colonus, Theban King Oedipus' place of death and Sophocles' birth place. But it also includes written sources, such as "The Iliad" by Homer (fl. 8th century B.C.E.).
