I don't know about the Greeks but I know a lot of ancient cultures thought the liver was the most important organ (probably because it's full of blood).

For example in Persian poetry the word liver is found pretty much everywhere you would expect to see the word heart.

"You are my liver" is a nice/romantic thing to say to this day.
