About me Hi my name is Ares and I love to go to the gym with my friends and I like to text my family and friends wail I oovoo with my temporary girlfriend. I am the god of war so I like to fight a lot that’s why I cant stay with one wife for to long and I was the only child of hera and Zeus. My father Zeus didn’t like me from the minuet I was born he never liked me. I had a secret relationship with Aphrodite, she was currently married to the ugly Hephaestus. He was the ugliest god ever and he got married to the prettiest!? I had a lot of kids. But I didn’t like most of them, they aggravated me! My roman name is mars because I am also the god of mars. Well that’s pretty much it so bye.

myth • Ares rode the chariot mad out of gold • He is the Savior of cities harnessed in bronze strong of arm unwearying mighty • Although he is already an important Olympian god in the epic tradition represented by the "Iliad" • he is depicted as somewhat cowardly rather than a brave soldier. • Stay at the tomb of dead Kroisos Who Ares destroyed one day fighting in the for the ranks • The Romans identified him as Mars the god of war and agriculture who they had inherited from the Etruscans but Mars stood in much higher esteem
Ares in Greek mythology will be best understood if we compare it with that of other divinities who are likewise in some way connected with war. • Athena represents thoughtfulness and wisdom in the affairs of war and protects men and their habitations during its ravages. • Ares on the other hand is nothing but the personification of bold force and strength and not so much the god of war as of its tumult confusion and horrors.
Ares was brave and strong but he was also argumentative impulsive bloodthirsty and destructive. • In conflicts he chose sides randomly and sometimes even changed sides in the middle of the war. • He simply took pleasure in the bloodshed slaughter and wanton destruction of war
