You have 3 minutes to complete this task. What is mythology? Some people use the word myth to mean fake, but… Mythology is the study of stories that were used to explain the world and other human experiences. In the same way, Greek Myths… Were used to explain the creation of the earth, death and the afterlife, and human experiences: love, jealousy, revenge, & war. They were also used as entertainment and were only told orally because most people could not read. Why Do We Study Myths? They depict and reveal behavior and problems common to all human beings. Remind us that human nature is the same across time and culture. Reveal that many social, ethical, and religious attitudes continue through time. They reflect the attitudes, priorities, and values of the cultures that produced them. The Belief System of Ancient Greece In Greek mythology, gods “did not create the universe… the universe created the gods” (Hamilton 24). In the beginning… there was only Chaos. Death in Ancient Greece According to the Greeks, all departed souls went to the Underworld. Two Main Divisions of the Underworld: Erebus: where the dead pass when they die Tartarus: the main division Death in Ancient Greece The dead are ferried across the point where the River Acheron (river of woe) pours into the River Cocytus (river of lamentation) by an aged boatman named Charon. Charon will ONLY ferry into the Underworld those who have been properly buried and who have had the passage fee placed on their lips at burial. Death in Ancient Greece At the gate sits Cerberus, the three-headed dog who permits all the dead to enter, but not to exit. The Underworld is ruled by the god, Hades and his queen, Persephone. Gods & Goddesses • Greek Myths include gods & goddesses. • A god or goddess is immortal. This means that they can never die and that they live forever. • The immortals could not die but they did make mistakes and had human emotions such as: jealousy, love & anger.
