The
Legend of the
Boy on the Dolphin
|
|
|
Most
Greek cities had foundation mythologies, which tell of the
circumstances under which a city was founded. Perhaps the
most interesting of all is that of the south Italian city
of Taras, which was originally populated by people from
the Greek city of Sparta, but was founded with the help
of the gods. read

Athena
and Pegasus
|
|
|
Athena was one of the most important goddesses in Greek
Mythology. She sprang full-grown and armored from the forehead
of the god Zeus and was his favorite child. The Parthenon,
in Athens, became hers as a result of her gift of the olive
tree to the Athenian people. Athena was primarily the goddess
of the Greek cities, of industry and the Arts, and, in later
mythology, of wisdom; she was also goddess of war. read
