Blog Post 2/16

     In English, I had to write a poem about Hector seeking help from goddess Athena in Book 6 of the Iliad.  My memory is refreshed of learning about the Greek gods in Latin in 7th grade.  Athena is the goddess of wisdom.  The gods and goddesses have roman names too.  Zeus is the king of the gods and almost every Greek goddess is his daughter.  It makes since that his Roman name is Jupiter since Jupiter is a big planet.  I also remember Poseidon (Neptune) who is the god of the sea.  I also remember that Artemis and Apollo are twins.  Apollo is the god of the sun/light.  Artemis is the goddess of the moon.
