144. The Mythology Of The Constellations Classical greek and Roman myths associated with the stars and constellations. http://www.emufarm.org/~cmbell/myth/myth.html

The Mythology of the Constellations Most ancient cultures saw pictures in the stars of the night sky. The earliest known efforts to catalogue the stars date to cuneiform texts and artifacts dating back roughly 6000 years. These remnants, found in the valley of the Euphrates River, suggest that the ancients observing the heavens saw the lion, the bull, and the scorpion in the stars. The constellations as we know them today are undoubtedly very different from those first fewour night sky is a compendium of images from a number of different societies, both ancient and modern. By far, though, we owe the greatest debt to the mythology of the ancient Greeks and Romans. The earliest references to the mythological significance of the Greek constellations may be found in the works of Homer, which probably date to the 7th century B.C. In the Iliad , for instance, Homer describes the creation of Achilleus's shield by the craftsman god Hephaistos: On it he made the earth, and sky, and sea, the weariless sun and the moon waxing full, and all the constellations that crown the heavens, Pleiades and Hyades, the mighty Orion and the Bear, which men also call by the name of Wain: she wheels round in the same place and watches for Orion, and is the only one not to bathe in Ocean Iliad XVIII 486-490) At the time of Homer, however, most of the constellations were not associated with any particular myth, hero, or god. They were instead known simply as the objects or animals which they representedthe Lyre, for instance, or the Ram. By the 5th century B.C., however, most of the constellations had come to be associated with myths, and the

147. Ancient Greek Religion & Mythology k12 Student webpage on greek religion and mythology. http://www.hsv.k12.al.us/schools/middle/wtms/student/erika/Mythology.html

The Greeks were polytheistic people. Meaning they believed in more than one god. It’s impossible to say exactly how many gods there were because different Greeks worshiped different gods and some small villages worshiped the main gods and their own village gods. There are hundreds of Greek gods, perhaps around 1,000. Some of the most famous gods were Zeus, Hera, Apollo, Artemis, Poseidon, Aphrodite, Athena, Demeter, Hermes, Ares, and Hades. Many Greek people worshipped foreign gods, if for some reason they thought this might help them somehow. The Egyptian goddess Isis was especially popular in Athens in the Hellenistic period. Zeus was allotted the dominion of the sky after having waged war against Cronos and the Titans. Zeus surpasses all others in spirit, wisdom and justice. Some say that Zeus caused the Trojan War, so that the load of death might empty the world. Zeus got the thunderbolt, his ultimate weapon, from the Cyclopes and an eagle brings back the thunderbolts which Zeus has flung. Zeus loved women so he had several offspring (children) with several different women other than his wife Hera. He has a total of 84 known children. Some of the more well know ones are Aphrodite, Athena, Ares, Apollo, and Artimus. Hera is the Queen of Heaven. She is always a virgin, for she recovers her maidenhood every year by bathing in a spring called Canathus in Argolis. She walks in golden sandals. Hera has many children. They are Ares, Ilithyia, Hephaestus, Typhon, and Pasithea 2.
