Ancient Greece is well known for its stories of gods, goddesses, and heroes. The word myth comes from the ancient Greek word mythos, which means “a spoken or written story.” Basically, a myth is a story with a purpose. Myths attempt to give explanations for events in the natural world among humans and between deities. Myths can teach societal standards, rules, and expectations in a way that interests the listener. Myths often have spiritual or religious meaning. Every culture, including our own, has its own myths.

Explains a natural phenomenon or the creation of something Depicts a struggle between good and evil Shows a relationship between mortals and the supernatural Contains magical characters, gods, goddesses, nymphs, giants, etc. Sometimes depicts a hero’s quest to accomplish a great feat Makes reference to geological places and cultural aspects of ancient Greece

Which of these Greek Gods did you have prior Knowledge about? Where have you seen, or heard about these figures before? Do you have a favorite god, or goddess? Why?

We will read and discuss the myth of Pandora, and look at it’s impact on mankind. This myth helps to explain why Ancient Greeks viewed women as an evil aspect to society. The next slide will have some questions that’s we will discuss

1.Early Greek Mythology began with figures other than the Olympians' that we consider the Greek Gods. Who are these figures, and what role do they play in Ancient Greece’s belief in the creation of the world? 1.How did the Gods view humans/man-kind? Why do you think this? 2.Why do you believe mythology would have multiple versions of Human Races in Ancient Greece? 3.Why were women portrayed negatively in Ancient Greece Mythology? 4.Why is “Hope” such an important aspect to man-kind in Ancient Greece? Who controls/represents Hope for man-kind? If women are considered a negative thing in this patriarchal society, then why would a woman be given this “gift? 5.What is one question that you still have about Ancient Greek Mythology?

What information that learned today did you find most interesting? If you were a Greek God- Who would you be and why? What attributes/powers do they possess that you find attractive and why?
