What is Moira in The Iliad?
Moira are the Fates, Cthonic Deities which are responsible for creating a sense of 'order' in the Iliad. Zeus accesses the Fates by using scales, when determining the fate of two men in battle or in the case of Troy and Greeks, the fate of civilisations. Men who are 'fated' to die in the Iliad are not even able to be saved by the gods, such as Sarpedon who died even though he was the son of Zeus.
