  1. Ares Greek God OF War

  2. Overview I will talk about Ares Greek God of war. Who is he, basic story strengths, weaknesses, major temple cites, and interesting facts.

  3. Who Is Ares Ares is the violence god in Greek mythology. He was not well liked or trusted by the Greeks and there are few tales about him. Athena is also a war god, but well-respected.

  4. Basic Story Ares is the sole son of the supreme Greek god Zeus and his wife, Hera. Neither of his far-from-mild-mannered parents were said to be too fond of their even more irritable son; a little more loving from them might have resulted in Ares being just the God of Minor Conflicts.

  5. Symbol and Attribute The spear. He is also associated with vultures and dogs.

  6. Strengths Decisive, determined, fearless.

  7. Weaknesses Impulsive, bloodthirsty, raring for a fight regardless of the consequences.

  8. Major Temple Sites • Ares enjoyed his strongest worship in the Northern Greece territory of Thracia or Thrace. As few people wanted to invoke war, temple sites are rare.

  9. Interesting Facts Ares is considered to be brutal and uncivilized. He was one of the most important of the Roman gods and an entire month of the year was dedicated to him. We still call the third month of the year, March, in his honor. They built temples for him and honored him by many celebrations during the year.
