Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire and craftsmanship, is traditionally considered to be the son of Zeus and Hera. In some myths, he is said to have been born from Hera alone, in retaliation for Zeus birthing Athena without her. Hephaestus was often associated with the underworld and volcanic activity, symbolizing his connection to fire and metalworking. His forge was believed to be located beneath Mount Etna in Sicily, where he crafted weapons and armor for the gods and heroes.
