About Zeus
Zeus is a god in Greek mythology known for being the ruler of the skies and thunder. In the order of gods, he is the highest above all. He also is revered as the king of all gods in Mount Olympus.
Zeus counterpart in the Roman mythology is Jupiter. He is the son of Chronus and Rhea. He married his sister Hera, but he is also known to have had many other consorts.
It’s a tale as old as the Greek era. On top of Mount Olympus lived the twelve Olympians, the major deities of the Greek pantheon, which includes the most recognizable names such as Zeus, Hera, Athena, Aphrodite, Apollo and so on.
These pagan gods and goddesses’ tales were told as the mere reflection of how human are; flawed and violent, created in the image of men. Yet, these supreme beings are immortal for they possess the natural power far greater beyond any men or women.
