Where do the fables came from?

fables and myths were storeys probably based on true events or an analogy used to teach children about the world

these would of been passed down orally until they were recorded

but during the time that they were passed down orally the story is exaggerated like in a game of Chinese whispers - were it starts of as " Frank killed the monster on Friday" and it ends up like " frank killed a gigantic fire-breathing monster who had 16 eyes on Monday, after and epic battle that lasted 3days" leading us to wonder whether the stories are true or not, certainly many of them have elements of truth

fables are just stories that teach people, they would of also been passed down orally though generations until recorded. there are also modern fables such as " an inspector calls" and "an illustrated man"
