The inheritance of the Greeks
In History I have to write a paper on what our modern society has inherited from the ancient Greeks. Now, English isn't my first language, so I'm probably typing something wrong into Google, because I don't get any concrete results. So I'm asking for your help, totse - could you mention, specifically, the things we have gotten from the Greeks? I already know about the Olympics, medicine, language, but not very specifically, and I'd like to look through the options I have before choosing one to write about.
Thanks.

Marathons, Olympics, myths that the movie industry has leaned on for years.

Oh, and to the OP, don't forget Oedipus Sophocles or however you spell it...from which we have so many "I love my mom" stories today....
