Does Greek/Egyptian/Roman mythology have a religious text or sacred compilation?

Question

If yes, who wrote the Greek holy text and when?
If yes, who wrote the Roman holy text and when?
If yes, who wrote the Egyptian holy text and when?

Answer 1

As far as I know they only had myths that were first passed on as oral traditions and then later written down. Specific temples might have had writings pertaining to the god who the temple belonged to but I can't see too much of that surviving to present day.

Answer 2

The 2 previous answers were right telling that there was no religious texts about the Greek/Egyptian/Roman mythology. I'll talk about the Greek one because I'm Greek. the religious tradition passed from one generation to the other orally; the sources about the religious ritual, for example, or the sacrifices to the Olympian gods are known to us through the dramatists,the poets and the philosophers mostly...You know Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Homer, Hesiod, Socrates, Plato. It's very easy for you to find translated copies of their works in any library; I suggest you the "Homeric Hymns"(every hymn is devoted to one single God), you can also read "Antigone" by Sophocles(it describes a funeral ritual for example).
It would be impossible for me to quote passages from their works because it's rather difficult to translate Ancient Greek to English because I'm not an expert and it would also be time-consuming....Sorry.....

Answer 3

All these religions where religions of mysteries, i.e. on reaching adulthood the believers underwent a ritual instruction and confirmation into the rites of their chosen deity(s) and became initiates.
Not everybody was accepted, and the total of the mysteries was only divulged to priests, in Egypt there was a hierarchy even there with ranks among the priests according to their grade of wisdom.
There were texts written, but they had no "official" status, and generally the instruction was oral, and the initiates had to promise not to talk about their experiences, except to other initiates.

Answer 4

several Egyptian texts were written on tomb walls and have survived. You can research the Pyramid texts and the Book of the Dead. A really good site for Egyptian research is www.touregypt.com
