Echo and Narcissus: where it came from, culture, place, and religion??

Echo and Narcissus are from Greek mythology, although they were in separate myths. I believe they weren't paired together until the Roman poet Ovid (43 BC - 18 AD) decided to put them together in one of his Metamorphoses stories (personally I think of Ovid almost as "fan fiction" of earlier myths). I wrote more about them here quite some time ago, but I don't know if it will be any help to you --

the most common myth includes both figures, though some people like to say the myth did not include narcissus. hope this helps!
Reply:theyre both from greek mythology. echo is in two myths, but the 2nd one is the one with narcissus in it.
Reply:Greek methology. Read the book by Edith Hamilton "Mythology" Both stories are there and many more.
