Depends. "The greeks" refers to history, philosophy, drama, and poetry. Depending on which route you take, you could move on to other epic poems (Aeneid, Punica); Roman history (Livy, Polybius, Diodorus, etc.); neoplatonist, stoic, cynic, epicurean philosophy; the bible/christian philosophy; or roman drama.

The greeks follow the greeks:
Ancient Greeks -> hellenic greeks -> classical greeks -> hellenic judaism -> greek gnosticism -> greek orthodoxy -> Hellenic Junta -> greek travel brochures.
