A Pantheon is a family of gods. Usually,
the gods within the pantheon form a hierarchy with a supreme
god
at the top. In
many ways a pantheon resembles a human society, often with a division of labor. In this case of Pantheons: It would be the Olympians.
The Olympians are the 12 Greek Gods who ruled Mount Olympus after the overthrow of the Titans.
The Olympians include;
Zeus (God of Thunder, Brother to Poseidon and Hades, ruler of Mt. Olympus)
Poseidon (God of the Sea, Brother to Zeus and Hades)
Hades (God of the Underworld, Brother to Zeus and Poseidon)
Hestia (Goddess of Hearth, sister to Zeus)
Hera (Queen of Mt. Olympus, wife and sister of Zeus)
Ares (God of War, Son of Zeus and Hera)
Athena (Daughter of Zeus, Goddess of Wisdom)
Apollo (God of Light and Truth, Son of Zeus and Leto, Twin brother to Artemis)
Aphrodite (Goddess of Love, Beauty and Desire, Wife of Hephaestus)
Hermes (Messenger God, Son of Zeus and Maia)
