The name of the great Greek hero isn't Hercules, it's actually Heracles. Hera wasn't his mother, in fact, she tried to kill him on several occasions.

Heracles means ‘pride of hera’ which is why its ironic.

Artemis killed one of her hunters because she was in love with Zeus, even though it was okay for her to be in love with a mortal (she made an oath never to love anyone).

In roman mythology, there was a god of a certain type of parasite that lived on a cow, sewers and hinges, not to mention more.

In norse mythology, there was a squirrel on the world tree that insulted the dragon at the bottom and the eagle at the top.

Loki wasn’t all bad, in fact he saved the sun, the moon, and Freya from getting married to a giant (if you want to details ask me through owl).
i know alotta facts about greek, roman and north mythology, so don’t hesitate to ask!

Loving these mythology facts!

The Roman god of doorways was named Janus - he had two faces, one looking into the past and one looking to the future. January is named after him!

Yup!

In some versions of Greek mythology, one of the Olympians was Hestia, goddess of the hearth. However, she later gave up her place for Dionysus.

Dionysus’ mother was tricked by hera to ask zeus to show her his true form (which would kill any mortal). That was why dionysus disliked hera.

Dionysus also had a bunch of dryad (woodland spirits) followers, but they were a bit crazy, since dionysus was also the god of madness.

Btw should we start a mythology discussion club for something?

Hades is unpitying and inexorable, but just and certainly not evil. Popular culture has done him wrong by giving a bad reputation! ;)

Having eyes, but not seeing beauty; having ears, but not hearing music; having minds, but not perceiving truth; having hearts that are never moved and therefore never set on fire - these are the things to fear.

The actual evil god is Moros, the god of doom.
He is the son of Nyx, the goddess of the night, and Erebos, the god of darkness. He was the god of doom, and one of the adjectives attributed to him was 'hateful'. Moros had the ability to make mortals foresee their death.
