Gods and heroes of Greek mythology

  Deucalion and Pyrrha He was the son of Prometheus and one of the Oceanids, whose name is shuffled between Pronea, Hesione or Clymene. He reigned in the regions near Phthia, but his wife was Pyrrha, daughter of Epimetheus and Pandora, the first woman created by the gods. When Zeus decided to put an end to the Bronze Age with the great flood, Deucalion, on the advice of Prometheus, built an ark and, arranging within it what was necessary, embarked in the company of Pyrrha. Zeus caused a flood and flooded most of Hélade, so that all men would perish except a few who took refuge on the summits of the nearby mountains. The sources do not agree on which mountain the ark arrived, although some consider that it could be Mount Parnassus, Mount Etna in Sicily, Atos or Otris in Thessaly. This account has been linked to the biblical Noah and to the narrative of Utnapishtin that appears in the Poem of Gilgamesh.

  Hephaestus He is the god of forging and fire, as well as blacksmiths, craftsmen, sculptors, metals and metallurgy. He was worshipped in all the industrial and manufacturing centers of Greece, especially in Athens.  While the other Olympian gods are perfect, Hephaestus has the peculiarity of suffering from a physical disability and performing manual labor. The popular version of the myth says that Hera threw him into the sea of Olympus to hide it when he was born with a limp. So much so, that he walked with the help of a cane or with the help of his automatons.  

  Pandora's Box The first woman, created by Hephaestus by order of Zeus, who contained all the evils of the world. The story goes that Zeus, eager to take revenge on Prometheus for stealing the fire and giving it to humans, introduced Prometheus' brother, Epimetheus, a woman named Pandora.

  Prometheus Is the titan friend of mortals, known mainly for defying the gods by stealing fire from them in the stem of a reed, giving it to men for use and subsequently being punished by Zeus for this reason. Prometheus was the father of Deucalion and grandfather of Helen. As the introducer of fire and inventor of sacrifice, Prometheus is regarded as the protective titan of human civilization.

  My opinion on what I'm reading I still love Hades, knowing more about the gifts they gave impressed me, I'm very entertaining in the book is wonderful, knowing the fight of Zeus and Typhon I am excited to read it

  Typhoon Typhon attempted to destroy Zeus for defeating the Titans. Initially, Typhon overpowered Zeus and ripped out his tendons, but these were recovered by Hermes and returned to the body of their owner; after that, Zeus proceeded to fight Typhon once more until defeating him. Defeated, Typhon was confined under Mount Etna. According to descriptions, Typhon was a colossal and creepy winged monster: his stature was such that he could reach for the stars. It had dragon heads by fingers and a large number of snakes were distributed between its thighs, with even more snakes forming its legs from these. Typhon could scorch everything that opposed him with his fiery gaze, as well as vomit fire and lava from his mouth, create hurricanes and earthquakes with the movement of his wings.

  Gifts to the gods Zeus: lightning, lightning, thunder Hades: a helmet that made him invisible Poseidon: a trident

  Poseidón  he is the god of the seas and, as "Agitator of the Earth", of earthquakes in Greek mythology. The name of the Etruscan sea god Nethuns was adopted in Latin for Neptune in Roman mythology, both of whom were sea gods analogous to Poseidon. Poseidon was an important municipal god of several cities: in Athens, he was second in importance behind only Athena, while in Corinth and in many cities of Magna Graecia he was the chief god of the polis.

  Hades  The God of the Underworld. the kingdom of Hades is the misty and gloomy abode of the dead, to which all mortals went. Later Greek philosophy introduced the idea that mortals were judged upon death and rewarded or cursed. Very few mortals would be able to leave this realm once they had entered, with the exception of the heroes Heracles and Theseus. Even Odysseus in his nekyia calls the spirits of the deceased, instead of descending to them.

  Cronos  He was the chief of the first generation of Titans, divine descendants of Gaia and Uranus. Cronus overthrew his father Uranus and ruled during the mythological golden age, until he was overthrown by his own son Zeus and imprisoned in Tartarus or sent to rule the paradise of the Champs-Elysées. He was often depicted with a sickle or scythe, which he used as a weapon to castrate and dethrone his father, Uranus. In Athens, on the twelfth day of the Attic month of Hecatombeon, a festival called Cronia was held in honor of Cronus to celebrate the harvest, suggesting that, as a result of his association with the virtuous golden age, he continued to preside as patron of the harvest. Cronus was also identified in classical antiquity with the Roman god Saturn.

                                                                            Zeus  He is the king of the gods and oversees the universe. He is the god of the sky and thunder and therefore of energy. His attributes include the scepter and crown, the thunderbolt, the eagle, the bull, and the oak. He also obtained certain iconographic features of cultures of the ancient Near East, such as the scepter. Zeus was commonly depicted by Greek artists in two poses: standing, advancing with a raised thunderbolt in his right hand, and sitting majestically.

  (Cap)   In this chapter he tells us about how Greek mythology began, it all began in the place of Tartarus. The Titans appeared, the Titans were a race of powerful deities who ruled before Zeus; at least the rule of Cronus is set during the legendary golden age. Uranus planned to keep all the power. 

  What the author wrote in the back Work narrates with masterful style the most beautiful mythical stories In its pages is found in the creation of the universe the origin of the gods of Olympus and the adventures of the bravest heroes who must fight against terrible monsters, and above all, against their own destiny. 

                                                       What I think it will be about I think it's going to be about the Greek gods, who they were, their contributions, how they are and many more things. I chose it because I love Greek mythology, I want to learn and know more, this book I feel will attract me a lot and I am excited to read it.
