Visitors have been to Mount Olympus.

Welcome to Mount Olympus, the home of the Greek Gods. Allow me to introduce myself... I am Poseidon, the god of the high seas. Join me as I take you on a guided tour of our home.

I invite you to meet some of my fellow gods and goddesses:

ZEUS	HERA	ATHENA	APOLLO	APHRODITE
ARES	HADES	ARTEMIS	HERMES	HEPHAESTUS

For my Enriched World Issues class, I wrote a research paper on the affects of Greek Mythology on the modern English Language. To read this paper, click here.

This paper illustrates many of the Greek-originated figurative terms we use today in ordinary conversation. I have taken the liberty of giving links to some such words. On the following pages, you will find pictures and the origin of each phrase, along with how to use them.

cyclops	sisyphean	chronic	tantalize	herculean	hyacinth
arachne	narcissus	Jove	muse	pygmalion	promethean
