There were many gods in Greek mythology; the number of minor gods is not countable to an exact number. We can only estimate from the artifacts and stories that have survived the years.
However, there were twelve main gods and goddesses known as the 12 Olympians.

It was characterized by polytheistic religion based on mythology
Unlike the Greek mythology, early Roman religion did not see their gods as engaging in human-like activities. There are no accounts of such things as where they would live. They were known as protectors of various aspects of human life, with a very complex hierarchy. Only later, when large parts of Greek mythology were borrowed, we see more anthropomorphic characteristics ascribed to Roman gods, as well as many Greek gods added to the Roman pantheon. Many of these "new" gods were believed to have lived on mount Olympus, which is the highest mountain in Greece.
