Geography of Ancient Greece Greek peninsula-very mountainous, rough terrain. ◦This made it hard for the city-states to communicate ◦The ocean served as Greece’s main way of trading. ◦As a result, government and life in the city-states was very different from one another. ◦Hard to unite Greece as a country ◦Only religion was the same

What is a myth? Myths are a way of understanding the world. This lesson has been about Greek mythology, but every culture has myths. Myths define social customs and beliefs, explain natural and psychological phenomena, and provide a way for people to discuss things that cause anxiety.

Religion: Greek Mythology At the center of Greek mythology is the pantheon of deities who were said to live on Mount Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece. From their perch, they ruled every aspect of human life. Olympian gods and goddesses looked like men and women (though they could change themselves into animals and other things) and were–as many myths recounted–vulnerable to human foibles and passions.

The Twelve Olympians Zeus: the king of all the gods (and father to many) and god of weather, law and fate Hera: the queen of the gods and goddess of women and marriage Aphrodite: goddess of beauty and love Apollo: god of prophesy, music and poetry and knowledge Ares: god of war Artemis: goddess of hunting, animals and childbirth Athena: goddess of wisdom and defense Demeter: goddess of agriculture and grain Hermes: god of travel, hospitality and trade and Zeus’s personal messenger Poseidon: god of the sea Hades: god of the underworld Hestia: goddess of home and family Hephaestus: god of fire, metalworking and sculpture Dionysus: god of wine and festivity

By studying Greek myths, we can really understand how they viewed the world. greece.mrdonn.org/myths.html
