Answer 1

There were a lot of Greek gods and goddesses, too many to name. I'll name the major ones for you though.

Demeter: Goddess of the harvest

Hermes: Messenger of the gods

Hephaestus: Blacksmith of the gods

Aphrodite: Goddess of love

Ares: God of War

Hera: Goddess of marriage, queen of the gods

Zeus: God of mankind, king of the gods

Poseidon: God of the sea

Athena: Goddess of wisdom, goddess of war

Apollo: God of light and music

Hades: Ruler of the Underworld, god of the dead

Hestia: Goddess of the hearth and home

Amphitrite:goddess of the sea

Gaia:goddess of the earth

Hydra:God of the lakes and swamps

Uranus:god of the night sky

Of course, there were many others, as I said before, but those are the most common ones.
