I ask because one of the things on this forum is that we encourage people to do their own research and then come here.
If you had found (or now go out and find) conflicting answers, then THAT's a great time to come here and ask.
The main gods and goddesses in Greek mythology were Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, Dionysus, and Hades.
Some famous stories from Greek mythology include the story of Zeus and the creation of the world, the story of Prometheus and Pandora, the story of Perseus and Medusa, and the story of the Trojan War.
Greek mythology played a significant role in ancient Greek society, as it was used to explain natural phenomena, teach moral lessons, and provide a common cultural identity for the people.
While there is no concrete evidence to suggest that the events in Greek mythology actually happened, some scholars believe that the myths may have been based on real historical events and figures.
Greek mythology continues to have a strong influence on modern culture, with many books, movies, and TV shows drawing inspiration from Greek myths and characters. Many words and phrases in the English language also have their roots in Greek mythology.
