Apollo is both the Roman and Greek god of the sun.
First off, Apollo is not the "sun god." Helios is the god of the sun. Apollo is the god of prophecy, music, and healing. He is also known to be the god of light. Not the sun. The sun is a source of light, but not light itself.
Because he is a god of light, and the sun produces day light.
Apollo is the Greek god of the sun. He is also the Greek god of light. Light is very similar to sun because with sun you can see and light u can see.
Apollo is Apperenly the god of light/the sun.
He was born the god of light of the sun, as his sister was born light of the moon.
Hemera was the goddess of daylight and the sun. Apollo was the god of sun and light.
I'm pretty sure he didn't. It was Helios, the sun god, who did that. You might have heard Apollo did because since Apollo is a god of light people can mistake him for the sun god when really he is more a god of spiritual light, not the actual light of the sun.
