Description
Did you know that Zeus, the supreme god of Olympus, was married to his sister Hera? The twelve Olympian gods ruled the world from Mount Olympus, and their intrigues shaped the destinies of mortals and heroes alike.
Apollo, the god of light and music, rode across the sky daily in his solar chariot. His twin sister, Artemis, goddess of the hunt, carried a bow and arrow, guarding the forests and wild animals.
Hercules completed twelve labors, including slaying the Nemean Lion and the nine-headed Lernaean Hydra. And the hero Theseus defeated the Minotaur in King Minos's Labyrinth on the island of Crete.
The underworld was ruled by Hades, whose realm was divided by the River Styx. His three-headed dog, Cerberus, guarded the entrance, preventing the dead from leaving or the living from entering.
These myths, recorded by authors such as Homer and Hesiod in the 8th and 7th centuries BC, still inspire modern art, science, and the names of space objects such as the asteroid Apollo.
