Greek mythology in everyday life

-
The more I delve into greek mythology, the more amazed I get by how much some aspects of greek mythology still apply nowadays- both in Greece and worldwide.

So I am going to start a new section next week, when I will hopefully have finished my research on the greek deities' symbols. In this section, I will focus on modern customs and sayings of everyday life that have their roots in greek mythology. I am then planning to expand this section with a list of famous people/celebrities that are named after greek gods, along with a brief description and links to official resources of them.

Feel free to comment on this thoughts of mine, your opinion is precious and more than welcome!

Small Correction + Apologies

-
I want to thank my website's visitors for the nice responses and critics I receive from time to time. My special thanks go to Loren Crispell who corrected following point today, concerning the theogony: Ouranos, the Titan of the Skies, wasn't swallowing his children as I had written, but was just pushing them back into the womb of his wife Gaea. The mistake is now corrected, I am sorry for the wrong information I had published.

Greek Gods' genealogy

-
In the long run, the texts I am composing for the greek deities start getting bigger and bigger and I feel that they slowly become hard to read through. This applies especially to screen reading, where studying is more tiresome and you need to find information more instantly. Today I made the first step and, for each olympian god's info, I separated his/her genealogy into a paragraph itself. When I have finished, the next thing I am going to do will be creating a separate paragraph for each god's symbols as well. I hope this helps you too. Happy reading!
