Lame jokes aside, the oral tradition is vital wherever there are people. It is not the written word that communicates to small children, nor is it art that binds people to one another. It is the spoken word -- the bit of wisdom, of understanding slipped into every phrase -- that creates the bones and flesh of culture.

Oral is many people's favorite tradition. No chance of pregnancy and develops many cultural exchanges.

I think any tradition, of any kind, is important as a cultural background to any civilization. Popular wisdom is one of the greatest source of inspiration to science and philosophy.

very important....
people learn their value systems at home, using allegorical stories found in folklore. these bits of folklore become embedded in a society's value system. they creep into every aspect of life then, even into their legal systems.
