Where was Eros born?

Answer 1

No place is specified for the birth of Eros and there are many different myths about his origins. Eros was the Greek the God of love. (Roman equivalent Cupid) He shoots his arrows at people that he wants to fall in love. He makes those people fall in love whether they want to or not. The image of a young winged child is a more modern one, as Cupid was often depicted as a beautiful young man. His etymology is Desire.

Throughout Greek thought, there appear to be two sides to the conception of Eros; in the first, he is a primeval deity who embodies not only the force of erotic love but also the creative urge of ever-flowing nature, the firstborn Light for the coming into being and ordering of all things in the cosmos. In Hesiod's Theogeny, the most famous Greek creation myth, Eros sprang forth from the primordial Chaos together with Gaea, the Earth, and Tartarus, the underworld. According to Aristophanes' play The Birds (c. 414 BC), he burgeons forth from an egg laid by Nyx (Night) conceived with Erebus(Darkness). Alternately, later in antiquity, Eros was the son of Aphrodite and either Ares (most commonly), Hermes or Hephaestus, or of Porus and Penia, or sometimes of Iris and Zephyrus; this Eros was an attendant to Aphrodite, harnessing the primordial force of love and directing it into mortals.
