Mount Olympus

Greek and Roman Mythology has facinated me since I was in sixth grade and
first studied it.
We recieved a lot of great things from the Greeks. Have you ever wondered how such great thinkers, and lovers of the arts could believe in Gods?
Below I have listed the Olympians...The main Gods who live on Mount Olympus.

Greeks	Description	Romans
Zeus	King of the Gods and Man	Jupiter
Hera	Zeus' wife and Goddess of Women and Motherhood	Juno
Poseidon	God of the Sea	Neptune
Aphrodite	Goddess of Love, Beauty, and Desire	Venus
Ares	God of War	Mars
Artemis	Goddess of the Moon, Birth, and the Hunt	Diana
Apollo	God of Light, Healing, and Prophecy	Apollo
Athena	Goddess of Wisdom, War, and Industry	Minerva
Hephaestus	God of Smiths and fires	Vulcan
Demeter	Goddess of Agriculture and fertility	Ceres
Hermes	(Divine Messenger)God of Trade and Communications	Mercury
Hades	God of Death, Wealth, and the Underworld	Pluto

It is believed that all the Olympians are related in some way. They are all desended from the Titans, with the exception of Aphroite, who is said to have risen from the sea.
