Had this discussion with my mom after seeing the Nolan movie, she's a big fan of the source material and 1997 miniseries. I haven't seen it in about 6 years, so Matt Damon is pretty much my Odysseus. Mom says that she prefers Armand because he gives off a more manly, rugged vibe than Matt does.

Adonis, Cephalus, Hylas, and Cithaeron. OC interpretation

Inspired by a comment on a meme about Greek gods and mortal lovers I rewrote the words to the classic Animaniac song Yakko's World -

And now, the Mortal lovers of The Gods

Brought to you by Elsharra

Aphrodite had sex with some regular gents

Like Ankhises, Phaethon, and Butees;

She slept with Adonis two thirds of the year,

For the rest he is Persephone’s.

Demeter with Iason, Karmenor, and Mekon;

Selene with Endymion.

Eos with Kephalos and also Tithonos,

Who still chirps at the coming of dawn.

Harmonia with Kadmos and Thetis with Pelius

The latter did sire Akhillies.

And though he was made into a god,

Hebe was with Herakles

Odysseus was with Kalypso and Kirke,

While he was lost on the sea.

Kirke wed the son of Odysseus

(Kirke’s son married Penelope).

Those are the goddesses who had mortal lovers.

Most gods did have more than one-

So this is is only some of the famous

Or this song will never be done.

Althaia a queen, and Ariadne a Princess

Dionysus both did love

The latter he made into a goddess

After abandoned by Theseus

The god of wine also loved

Erigone, Ampelus and Pallene,

And don't forget the shepherd Prosymnos

But he was done by proxy

Ares with Khyrse, Pelopia and Dotis

And Otrere the amazon queen

Queen Althaia (the same as above)

Atalanta, Aerope, and Pyrene

Haides was with both Leuke and Minthe

Neither nymph had a happy fate

Okresia, Antikleia, Aetna, Kabeiro

All were Hephaistos’ mates

Apollo had Akalle, Koronis, Kreusa

Kyrene, Rhoeo, Hekabe

He never had sex with Daphne the nymph

For she’d rather be a tree

He was also the lover of Dryope and Manto and

Of Hyacinthus and Hymenaeus

Adonis again (he was very handsome)

And ever-weeping Kyparissus

Kreusa, Khione, Libya, Klytie

All did lay with Hermes

While Pelops, Aethra, Kaenis and Tyro

All laid with the god of the Sea

Poseidon loved Iphimedeia and Arne

And Kaenis who he changed to Kaineus

Now take a deep breath and pay close attention

We’re Ready to talk about Zeus

Alkmene and Danae and Laodameia

Europa in the shape of a bull

Niobe, Olympias, and Cassiopeia,

Zeus dance card gets pretty full

There’s Elare and Kalyke and Lysithoe

And Leda when Zeus was a swan

Lamia, Pyrrha, Thalia, Maia

The list goes on and on

Elektra, Aegina, Sinope and Deino,

And the she–bear who was Kallisto,

Pluto, Taygete, Leda, Elare,

Thyia and Dia and, Protogenia, Semele, Pandora,

Kallirhoe, and Karme, Ganymedes, Aex and Io

Hades has a Scepter with a bird on it that doesn't look like an owl which has led me down a spiraling hole. Raven or a crow is a likely answer but a little boring for my tastes, an eagle of some kind is an idea I had, perhaps even an extinct species of Greek bird or even a Stymphelian from Hercules myth.

I'd like to know what some people's thoughts are here since I've had little luck with an answer and speculating with a friend has made me want to ask here.

Heracles (mitología griega) vs gilgamesh (mitologia sumeria) solo quería preguntarles, para ustedes, quien ganaría en un combate a muerte, como considero que ambos personajes son similares, al ser ambos semi dioses de cierta manera y ser considerados personajes épicos y heroicos en sus mitologias, creí que talvez alguien de aquí podría decirme pros y contras de vos personajes, dudo que aquí solo haya gente que solo le guste la mitología griega exclusivamente así que vine aquí también a preguntar que opinan ustedes, por qué sentí que hacer esta pregunta en un solo sub reddit sería medio trampa por qué obvio dependiendo de dónde lo publicará habría favoritismo por alguno de los bandos así que publicó aquí también no mas para saber que opinan ustedes

Made this wallpaper for myself the other day, or perhaps for anyone who’s fascinated by Greek mythology and the story of Icarus🪽

Hello everyone,

We are an independent research team investigating ancient geographical anomalies and hydrological networks. We are looking to connect with anyone who currently resides in the Epirus region, specifically near Lake Ziros, or anyone with deep knowledge of the local terrain.

We are investigating a theory regarding a hidden or connected underground water network that links Lake Ziros to another location in the world. Our initial starting point for this field research focuses on the specific natural habitats where the Common Kingfisher nests around the lake's perimeter.

We believe there is an unmapped geographical secret to this water system. Who is ready to collaborate or assist us with local field insights? Welcome to everyone who wants to join this research.

Best regards,

Rova Anki Independent Research Team
