Wikipedia is somewhat helpful, but not much, and google is giving me nothing but Term papers ranging from $34.95-$57.95

In greek plays, rarely was the ideal of equanimity forgotten, Equanimity in loss was to not whine, complain, or blame, and in victory was to not loot and destroy, which just reminded me of the story of Theseus and the war of Seven against Thebes, where Theseus wouldn't allow his army to loot and destroy Thebes, and that they only came to right a wrong. That's one more value, any firther help is still appreciated though/

I could tell you about Greek history, Greek mythology, and Greek art - but Greek "values"?  I don't even know what that means.

Sorry.

There's nothing to apologize for, plus you probably don't feel contrite, which is a good thing. Since if you felt like doing pennance, I'd ask for you to buy a term paper for me to read.

Not really contrite, no - but I do like to help people.  I'm always saddened when I can't.

Here's one for you.

In ancient Greece, the Greek scholars would have relationships with their male students until they (the students) married.

That is to say that, the boys would assume the female role of a relationship (in every aspect of the word, sex included).  The scholars would buy them gifts and  tell them they looked beautiful and would engage in sexual acts with them.  The purpose of this was to teach the students to know how to participate in a give and take relationship and to learn how good it felt to be put upon.

That's a good one.  It shows that relationships and treatment of women was important to the Greeks.  As an added bonus, you get to talk about old guys having sex with little boys.

I was just about to bring up the Man-boy love values....

They also enjoyed large orgies.

Don't unknowingly kill your father and have sex with your mom! If you do, you'll become a King and then you'll poke your eyes out with little golden forks.
