    Extractions: Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Hesiod (Hesiodos) was an early Greek poet , believed to have lived around the year 700 BC . From the 5th century BC there was debate about the priority of Hesiod or Homer . Most modern scholarship agrees that Homer lived before Hesiod. Hesiod lived in Boeotia and regularly visited Mt Helicon , the mythological home of the Muses , who, he says, gave him the gift of poetic creation one day while he was out tending sheep. The known details of his life are few, and almost all come from his own works. His poem Works and Days mentions that he lost a lawsuit with his brother Perses over their inheritance . However, some scholars have argued that Perses is a literary creation, a foil for the moralizing of the Works and Days . Another biographical detail Hesiod mentions is a poetry contest at Chalcis where he was awarded a tripod by the sons of one Amiphidamas (ll.654-662). Plutarch was the first to state that this was an interpolation into Hesiod's original work, based on his identification of Amiphidamas with the hero of the Lelantine War between Chalcis and Eretria , which occurred around 705 BC . This contest was the inspiration for the later tale of a competition between hesiod and Homer. Two different, yet early, traditions record the site of his grave. One, as early as

Since at least Herodotus 's time ( Histories , 2.53), Hesiod and Homer have generally been considered the earliest Greek poets whose work has survived, and they are often paired. Scholars disagree about who lived first, and the fourth-century BC sophist Alcidamas Mouseion even brought them together in an imagined poetic agon, the Contest of Homer and Hesiod Aristarchus first argued for Homer's priority, a claim that was generally accepted by later antiquity. Hesiod's writings serve as a major source on Greek mythology farming techniques, early economic thought (he is sometimes identified as the first economist , archaic Greek astronomy and ancient time -keeping. J. A. Symonds writes that "Hesiod is also the immediate parent of gnomic verse , and the ancestor of those deep thinkers who speculated in the Attic Age upon the mysteries of human life."
