THE TWELVE OLYMPIANS
The twelve dominant deities in Greek myth lived on Mount Olympus and controlled life on Earth: they were ZEUS (king os the gods), APHRODTE,APOLLO,ARES,ARTEMIS,ATHENA,DEMETER,HEPHAESTUS,HERA,HERMES,HESTIA, and POSEIDON. This family tree shows their relationship to each other,as well as to some of the Titans. Such as Cronus and Rhea, and a number of lesser gods
ZUES #1
ZUES, son of the titans cronus and rhea,was the god of the sky and thunder. His most feared weapon was his thunderbolt, fashioned by the cyclopes. He became ruler of the gods when he led them in their defeat of the titans during the cosmic war. Though he married the goddess Hera, he was famous for his many sexual conquests, which included goddesses,nymphs, and mortal women. Some of the numerous children of these liaisons wielded immense power over the people of earth.
THE DISGUISES OF ZEUS
Zeus's shining body could terrify mortals and his thunderbolt could burn to death anything that came too near. For these reasons, and because many of his sexual partners were unwilling, Zues adopted various guises when approaching his loves. He charmed Europa by taking the form of a bull,got through Danae's prison by turning into a shower of gold, became a satyr to rape Antiope, a princess of Thebes and approached Leda as a swan. He tricked alcmene by disguising himself as her husband,Amphitryon,and turned into an eagle to carry off Ganymede, a young man he had fallen in love with. Zues could disguise the objects of his love too,turning io, a priestiess of Hera into a cow and callisto,a nymph of Artemis, into a bear to allay the suspicions of his wife..
