He was supposed to be the creator of mankind.

They first held the Olympics for him (though it was not annual and it lasted at most a week, if not less than a day!), and there were many, many, many (ect.) temples and statues for him.

Sources-- I take Latin, so I know a little about the ancient Greeks from roman history, and my father has been to Greece before and has seen at least 30 temples still standing today!
