Ancient Secrets
I finally got round to reading Homer’s Odyssey and have now realised that the ancients are full of amazing hidden knowledge. Little things like how they used to treat strangers that came round to their houses (They would welcome them, give them the best food, and the host would give a leaving gift); and their attitude to fighting (There is never any bad guys in either book, both sides are given an opportunity to tell their story) these seem like such modern ideas that even our society struggles to maintain.
It makes sense that the Homer epics are so full of knowledge, the books acted as a bible for the Greeks. It is a compilation of their morals and culture.
