9/3 Iliad Extra (#1b)

From this epic, “The Iliad”, a couple Greek values can be observed. First, sacrificing to gods was a common practice. An example of this is when Zeus himself admires Hector for his consistent sacrifices. Second, the Greeks guy you’d a proper burial. Hector’s father was willing to risk his life to receive his sons dead body from the enemy. Only a proper burial would complete the mourning process.
