[@scrungozeclown836]

I think it is worth mentioning (and possibly editing) that Hermes also is, in some ways, a death god. If I remember correctly, Thanatos actually deals with your death, Hermes transports your soul to the underworld, and Hades is the "Warden" so to speak. It is also worth mentioning that, just like Aphrodite, in some myths about Dionysus, he has existed for long before all the other gods, and is another sort of primordial being of indeterminate birth.

[@eternal___official]

Well "Charos" is the Boatman of the underword transfering your soul to it - although, in order to reach the port of the that boatman, Hermes had to tranfer you there. Thanatos is actually the word Death in greek so, i tend to believe he was more of a concept-kind-of-god than having a real duty, since Hades was ruling the underworld. Not that sure about that though. I'm not an expert, just know a couple things out of chance cos im greek haha.

[@scrungozeclown836]

@@eternal___official the way I saw it (and this depends on what canonicity you follow) Thanatos sort of separates your soul from your body when you die (or really, kills you, because without Thanatos you cannot die. See, Sisyphus) Hermes takes your soul and delivers it to the outer shore of the underworld Charon/Kharon ferry's your soul across the river Styx to the shore of the underworld proper (given you have the coinage) Cerberus/Kerberos guards the gates of hades, only allowing entry to those who belong there (and keeping those who shouldn't leave in) And Hades is like the warden overseeing the entirety of the underworld

Great video! Indeed my peoples mythology never seize to amaze me ! Every version of it is complicated but very intersting. You could make a 20 min video for every god, titan, deity and still will not be enough! For example Pan the god and protector of sheperds is also mentioned being the son of Gaia. This is why we see him so close to nature and one of the few gods who could see and talk to Nymphs (mortals could have had many problems with them). Also it is said that Pan helped the greeks in the battle of Marathonas in which he made a terryfying growl which made the Persians to panic. It is very well believed that the word panic comes from that day, from Pan which now is a term to descibe something very big and general (his growl echoed from a big distance and made every enemy terrorised). Words with pan in it like a Pan-demic or a panorama. I hope you read my comment :) Have a nice day folks!

Amazing! I would like also to add that Zeus actually had a phropecy about him having a child that is much better than him and that time he was with Metis. What happened is Zeus ate Metis, but Metis resided in Zeus's mind while she was pregnant, then Athena sprung out of Zeus's head. Metis did not came out of Zeus's head and now she is refered to as our conscience.

[@chloespinoza8214]

Nehemiah Miralo lets say he _absorbed_ her, i think that makes more sense as to why Metis resides in his mind

Metis is Jupiter's moon. In fact, that moon will eventually spiral into Jupiter and become part of the planet due to it orbiting faster than the planet spins.

I started learning about Greek mythology when I was 7 - that was nearly 50 years ago and it STILL KEEPS CHANGING!!!! Some sources have Aphrodite married to Hephasteus who had an idea his wife was playing around so he made a net of super fine gold and caught Ares and her in the act. He was also the god who made Zeus's lightning bolts, and the Trident of Poseidon (3 prongs) and the Bident of Hades (2 prongs).

[@nekoneko7329]

That's because there isn't a source which is 100% accurate,as it's depicted differently by many ancient documents.Besides,it's a man-made religion,so it's natural that in each historical period it was viewd with alterations varying from one another.Every myth depicts the gods differently,mostly serving the purpose of that specific myth and not the bigger image;Greek Mythology as a whole and complete lineage of Titans,Gods(Primordial,Olympian,Minor etc),Creatures/Monsters and Heroes.

It becomes a religion to the extent that it resonates with ppl as being true, in some sense. It is striking how similarities you can draw between ancient mythology, world religion and the origins of life on Earth, according to mainstream science. They all start with nothing, then light, then stars, then planets, then life, then evolution of life.

Several mistakes I saw(probably more that I didn’t see): 1.) Phoebe was not a moon goddess, she was a goddess of prophecy and the first one to figure out how to hear the voices of Delphi. And because her grandson Apollo also has the gift of prophecy, he is sometimes called Phoebus Apollo. Phoebe’s husband Koios also has the gift of prophecy and was the Titan of the North. 2.) You forgot to add Zeus and Hera’s other daughter Eileithyia, the first goddess of childbirth(the other being Artemis)
