Mythology is about gods and goddesses or supernatural beings with powers and abilities greater than ordinary humans, and the mythology is set long ago. Some of the main gods are Zeus the god of all gods, Poseidon the god of the ocean, and Hades the god of death. Cronus is their father, a titan who was later overthrown by Zeus. The prophecy said that “Kronos would one day be overthrown by his own sons.” He then began to swallow all his children except Zeus, the lucky one. Then he took care of the nymphs. He grew up and became a young man. Zeus overthrew Cronus along with his brothers and sisters. After the Titanomachy, he was crowned king of all the gods. Cronus was one of the twelve titans. The twelve titans are Cronus, Hyperion, Crius, Rhea, Oceanus, Theia, Mnemosyne, Atlas, Phoebe, Iapetus, Tetheus and Coeus. The twelve Olympian gods are Zeus (the god of all), Poseidon (the god of the ocean), Athena (the goddess of wisdom, war and craftsmanship), Apollo (the god of music, arts, prophecy), Aphrodite (the goddess of love and beauty), Hephaestus (the god of fire and metalworking) husband of Aphrodite, Artemis (the goddess of hunting), Hermes (the god of diplomacy and thieves), Hera ( goddess of marriage) was married to Zeus who is also the queen of the gods, Demeter (the goddess of agriculture), Ares (the god of war) and finally Dionysus (the god of wine). A war for supreme power between the titans and the Olympians is called the Titanomachy. Zeus freed Kronos' brothers, the Giants, the Hecatonchires and the Cyclopes from Tartarus or the underworld. The Cyclopes made weapons for Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. Zeus had a thunderbolt, Hades had a helmet which makes him ...... middle of paper ...... similar to the food of the gods. Hades lived in the underworld where the dead go. Once you enter the underworld, you are judged on whether or not you have been a good person in life. Then you will be sent to one of three levels. As we read in the book Poptropica Mythology pg12 “The Elysian Field: this beautiful paradise was reserved only for the most righteous people, that is, those blessed by the gods”. “The Plain of Asphodels: if you were a normal person and not particularly good, you would end up here, floating like a ghost.” “Tartarus: The lowest level of Hades is where the truly evil people were sent to be tormented by the Furies.” The Furies are the goddess of vengeance. They are three sisters Aletto, Tisifone and Magaera and they are the children of mother earth Gaia and Uranus.
