Ερμής - HERMES was the great Olympian God of animal husbandry, roads, travel, hospitality, heralds, diplomacy, trade, thievery, language, writing, persuasion, cunning wiles, athletic contests, gymnasiums, astronomy, and Astrology. He was also the personal agent and herald of Zeus, the king of the gods. Hermes was depicted in ancient pottery and sculpture as either a handsome and athletic, beardless youth, or as an older bearded man. In his attributes were included the herald's wand or kerykeion (Latin caduceus), winged boots, and sometimes a winged travellers cap and chlamys cloak.
