  Aesop's Fables, or the Aesopica, is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave
  and storyteller who lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 564 BCE. Of diverse
  origins, the stories associated with his name have descended to modern times
  through a number of sources and continue to be reinterpreted in different verbal
  registers and in popular as well as artistic media.
  The fables originally belonged to oral tradition and were not collected for some
  three centuries after Aesop's death. By that time, a variety of other stories, jokes
  and proverbs were being ascribed to him, although some of that material was from
  sources earlier than him or came from beyond the Greek cultural sphere. The
  process of inclusion has continued until the present, with some of the fables
  unrecorded before the Late Middle Ages and others arriving from outside Europe.
  The process is continuous and new stories are still being added to the Aesop
  corpus, even when they are demonstrably more recent work and sometimes from
  known authors.
