  1. Aesop was born in the year 620 B. C. in Greece. He was born a slave. His first master was Xanthus and his second master was Jadmon. Aesop was granted his freedom by Jadmon. After gaining his freedom Aesop raised his status from slavery to one of high respect. He traveled through many countries.

    Aesop told his stories to many people throughout his life. These stories were retold and passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth. The fables were not written down for over 200 years. Each of these fables have a lesson to be told. Many of the fables are a means of political and social criticism. The stories end with a moral to assure the reader understands the message. Over 600 fables are have been collected and written down.


  2. Is this the old Aesop classic, supposedly written round about 6th century BC
