∙ 10y agoThere were many gods in Greek mythology; the number of minor gods is not countable to an exact number. We can only estimate from the artifacts and stories that have survived the years.
However, there were twelve main gods and goddesses known as the 12 Olympians.
All total, it is estimated that there were around 360 Greek gods. If you consider each of their names as a separate deity, the number is closer to 650.

Where is the home of the Roman gods?
Unlike the Greek mythology, early Roman religion did not see their gods as engaging in human-like activities. There are no accounts of such things as where they would live.

Only later, when large parts of Greek mythology were borrowed, we see more anthropomorphic characteristics ascribed to Roman gods, as well as many Greek gods added to the Roman pantheon. Many of these "new" gods were believed to have lived on mount Olympus, which is the highest mountain in Greece.
