Yes, the ancient Greeks did have poetry, just like the Romans did. In fact, Greek poetry dates back to even earlier than Roman poetry. Greek mythology, which includes famous figures like Zeus, Hercules, and Athena, was a rich source of inspiration for Greek poets. Greek poetry covered a wide range of genres, including epic poetry, lyric poetry, and dramatic poetry.
