no it is part of roman mythology sort of the same but the gods were more fartherly and warlike. Venus was the roman version of aphrodite goddess of love, daughter not of a god but of the waters. she was born when Kronus, the titan of time, chopped up his father and threw his pieces into the sea. after that the peices came together and formed aphrudite. as written by a great poet "she rose from the sea riding a giagantic seashell looking of all the bueaty on thee earth" so she is also the eldest but weakest of the twelve major gods
