Those Greeks really, really, really valued beauty. Also, it's weird that Hermaphrodite was embarrassed about being a combination man/woman, but being a combination man/animal was totally fine. They had a very interesting view of animals...
I really like these larger videos that combine aLot of prior stories to in a way summarize the many myths or legends involved, it makes for comfy listening and can be great for learning a good deal about the fundamentals of a culture like the summary of the Norse myths.
Imagine if the ancient Greeks knew about the rest of the world how many stories could have been made I mean imagine combining Greek mythology in Japanese mythology you would get some very interesting stories😅
Something I'm noticing with these myths and the Norse myths -- there's not much trading. People with higher status took what they wanted (both things and people). People with lower status asked for stuff, and people with higher status mostly gave because they felt like it. There isn't much exchanging going on.
Not exactly because there was a betting competition between the gods Zeus, Poseidon, Ares and Dionysus. Phaethon was working on making the best chariot ever and Dionysus revealed to Phaethon that he's the son of Helios. So Phaethon went to find his father which he did. Afterwards, he rode his father's chariot and he burnt the land later on as Patagonia or the land of fire. Phaethon learnt his lesson and he decided to win with a less better chariot than his father's and Dionysus was punished for his actions and his crops got burnt up
Oh my gosh the story is so sweet and affectionate I'm literally falling affectionate to the story myself 43:12 this part is a very sensitive part I can't even seem to shake my mood of it 44:16 I don't think that was a very good decision and really goes in the nerves the way that the sisters predicated her for doing the evil deed that caused her to go bad because technically she was forced to serve the mother of arrows 46:37
Gotta love Greek timelines. Helen, Pollux, Caster and Clytemnestra all the same age yet later Helen is way younger than the other 3 as the boys go with Jason when they’re grown and Theseus also is there but when they get back Helen is still a little girl when Theseus kidnaps her, and Clytemnestra has been married to Agamemnon long enough to have full grown children by the time Helen is old enough to marry Menelaus. I appreciate how well the Greeks in particular understood the pettiness and evil that dwells in the human heart. Pretty much no one, god nor mortal, could be categorized as good in most Greek myths.
yea they are cool, but they make no sense chronology-wise. The biggest inconsistency is Argo, Medea and all stories surrounding her. She goes to Athens AFTER the Argo, when Theseus arrives in Athens she is already there, and yet DURING the Argo, Theseus is either part of it, or trapped in the Underworld. On top of that, Ariadne's children with Dionysus are part of the Argo, and yet it takes place BEFORE Medea arrives in Athens, hence BEFORE Theseus arrives in Athens, therefore BEFORE Theseus slays the Minotaur and abandons Ariadne on an island to be found by Dionysus on the first place. Not to mention that the Argo takes place after Heracles' fourth labour, and Chiron helps the Argonauts in the beginning, and yet Chiron died DURING the fourth labour? Ancients Greeks need to reboot the universe and fix these loopholes.
It seems a lot of people have only ever heard a single version of many of these myths. Just because it goes different than your familiarity, doesnt make it wrong.
The story of Hermaphroditus shown in this video was not a folk tale of Greek origin but one from the Roman poet Publius Ovidius Naso or simply "Ovid" for short. Ovid is famous for a collection of mythological stories which he compiled into a work he titled "Metamorphoses" in which he included this one about Hermaphroditus.
The Atalanta story part of your video was missing somewhat important parts that make the race part more interesting and gives more context. The 3 golden apples all turn into individual things each time. (Can't remember though if it's when they are first thrown or when Atalanta physically picks the golden apples up). Just thought it would add to how the one man over everyone else was able to win the race and best the fastest woman with unstoppable, unwavering and unbeatable brains to go with her speed and stamina that makes her able to not tire therefore be clear minded and fast thinking. I guess being raised by a bear in the first will do that. 😊
They are, but in some myths they get tossed around as the same god, i assume cause at one point or another they were each were the sun god/titian. Some sources say it was helios, but then apollo took his place after the titian got banished (or generally smth along those lines) while other will sayd the apollo is helios and swap around the name. More often the former is more referred to but both are part of the myths among different sources. Both are right in there own sence, tho (=
Some stories stay Hermaphrodites from birth was neither male nor female but both like his parents in all ways hence why intersex people until recent years was named from it.
Why say Aurora? She is Eos in Greek mythology. Aurora is the Roman version, equivalent to Eos. And why is she Hellenic here as Aurora, but you made her later in the Trojan Cycles as a African Nubian character??? Does NOT make any sense.

@@2prider451 So are we just going to ignore that her dad was the king of Argos? Suidas s.v. Io (trans. Suda On Line) (Byzantine Greek lexicon C10th A.D.) : "Io : A name.

He also had a daughter Io; Pekos (Pecus) who is also Zeus abducted her and fathered a daughter, Libya, by her. And Io, lamenting her ruin, fled to the Silpion Mountain and there died. Her father and her brothers, when they learned this, built a shrine to her and called the place Iopolis and remained there until the end. And they performed a ritual in her memory, banging on each other's doors every year and saying ‘io, io!’"
The Greeks believed that the Gods of other peoples were for the most part just their own Gods but under a different name. It didn't matter how old the culture was. They just thought that their way of worshipping the Gods came later
@@SpartanHoplite-p1f nahhhh bruh she wasn't Helen's sister. There were only three kids not four: the twins castor and Pollux and Hellen. Clytemnestra wasn't Leda's and Tyndareus child
Maybe there are different version of the history. That happend a lot, for instance Hesiod and Homer had differnt stories about the gods and in which order they were born .
One of my night care is not last night the night before was telling me how she started it and I’ll reduce it was a real life princess and the queen was jealous of her and pushed her into a snake of pit

No no because Cadmus didn't wore any lion skin. Also, he was like a coward before finding Europa. Cadmus gained courage in order to save his sister from the beast
@@2prider451 So I couldn't get the exact numbers for where this is but here's an excerpt from Ovid that talks about Cadmus fighting the dragon. Go ahead and cross-reference it with Perseus Tufts "Clothed in a skin torn from a lion, he was armed, complete, with lance of glittering steel; and with a dart: but passing these he had a dauntless soul."
Greek mythology is incredibly boring. I love history but for some reason Mythology is not interesting. I am not interested in modern gods so that might have something to do with it.
