REFLECTION TASK 2A

In this task, I want to give some information about major gods and goddesses in Greek Mythology. I picked this topic because I’m interested in Greek Mythology more or less. There is a place called ”Olympus”. Gods rule the world from here. In Greek Mythology, there are 12 major gods and goddesses, but I’m going to talk about some of them. There are 6 children of Rheia and Kronos. These are Hestia, Hades, Poseidon, Zeus, Hera and Demeter. Zeus is the most important god, and he is the father of the gods. He is the god of the thunder, and he is frequently depicted with a thunderbolt leveled in his raised right hand. He is also infamous for his erotic escapades. Poseidon is the brother of Zeus, and he is god of the sea. Additionally, he is referred to as ”Earth-Shaker” due to his role in causing earthquakes, and has been called the ”tamer of horses”. Hades is the brother of Zeus. He is the god of the underworld and death. He abducted Persephone, the daughter of Zeus. Then, they get married and live in the underworld. Hera is the wife and one of 3 three sisters of Zeus. She is the goddess of women and marriage. She is known for her jealousy. She has an influence on Zeus’ important decisions. Zeus has a lot of wifes and children. Athena, Hephaistos, and Ares are children of Zeus and Hera. Apollon and Artemis are children of Zeus and Leto. Dionysus is the son of Zeus and Semele. Hermes is son of Zeus and Maia. Finally, Persephone is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter. I hope these information will be useful for you to have an idea about them.
