The Greek Gods are 13 anthropomorphic, supernatural beings. Each stands for a different area of life/emotion e.g. Aphrodite = love. In later Greece, many people began to believe more in the Gods as just natural forces and fate, rather than real Gods.

As a generic god. Usually worshiped by pagans who had no recognition of Christianity. There were quite a few Greek gods, but they came and went, because they were false gods.
