What role do the poems of the ancient Greek poet Homer play in our life?

Of course, Homer plays almost no role in everyday life. True, historians, for example, can argue with this. Homer most likely lived in the so-called Dark Ages, when the cultural development of the Greeks was rapidly declining. In fact, only Homer gives us a description of the ancient history of Antiquity. In addition, it is often possible to learn about the presence of any God in the Olympic pantheon from Homer. That is why some of the Greek Deities are called “Homeric”.
