Why is the symbols of Ares a dog and a vulture?

Good Question. It is probably not proven historically why Ares's symbols would be a dog and a vulture but...

My best guess is that... when a battle was fought, the carrion birds would gather and wait. They would watch the battle and when it was over was a feast of rotting and decaying humans. SInce vultures are often thought of as the representative carrion birds, they would be a good choice.

As for the dog, dogs can be vicious but for exact reasons, I am not sure.

Who is the greek equivalent of the roman god Mars?

Actually the Roman gods did not "get" their names from their Greek counterparts; basically what happened is that Roman and Greek religion come from the same Indo-European origin and share many of the same stories and gods/figures, so ancient peoples recognzied Greek gods as having Roman equivalents. The same is true of Nordic gods, incidentally. So, the god of war in Rome was Mars, and the god of war in Greece was Ares, and the god of war was Odin (or Woden in Old English). All three religions (and others) come from the same origin, so similar stories are shared by peoples as far flung as the Irish, Russians, and Indians, too.

So you don't have to read the whole thing: It is Ares, the Greek god of war.

Ares' Roman name is Mars. That's where the planet got its name.
Athena you failure of spelling!

I apologise for above-answering's behaviour, Questioner. Also, I apologise for the misleading answer he/she has provided.

Mars was named after the Roman God, Mars, whose Greek name is Ares. The planet's reddish appearance reminded the Romans of blood, and since blood is inevitable during war, they called it Mars.

Was the greek god Ares's throne made out of silver or gold?

I know it is often said that there were "twelve thrones" on Olympus, but the very idea doesn't make sense. Zeus was the king of the gods and jealously guarded his power.

What actions or crimes did ares the god commit?

Ares's crime is adultery.

He was caught making love with Aphrodite, Hephaestus's wife.

(I have written the story below)

Hera, reconciled with her son Hephaestus, arranged for him to marry the goddess of love. Zeus, Aphrodite's adoptive father, agreed. Unsurprisingly, the marriage of the enchantingly beautiful, sensual, and insatiable Aphrodite and the powerful, but gruff, ugly, and lame Hephaestus was not a happy one.

Aphrodite could not confine her love to just one other. The goddess did not remain faithful to Hephaestus-not by a long shot. She had countless affairs with both gods and mortals.

The most long-standing and significant of all of Aphrodite's lovers was Ares. But one night, the lovers tarried too long together. As Helius hitched up his golden chariot of the sun, he saw the lovers in Ares' palace.

When Helius told Hephaestus what he had seen, the smith god forged an unbreakable bronze net and secretly attached it to the posts and sides of his bed. Then he bid Aphrodite adieu, saying he was going to relax on Lemnos for a while.

As soon as he had gone, Aphrodite sent for Ares. When the morning came, Hephaestus walked in-"Surprise! Hi, honey, I'm home!"-and found the two ensnared in the net. The cuckolded god quickly gathered all the other gods at his bedside to witness the shame of the naked, helpless couple and to heap ridicule upon them.

Hephaestus then demanded the return of the marriage gifts he had given to Zeus. But the ruler of the gods refused, calling the adultery a marital dispute and ridiculing Hephaestus as a fool for making it a public spectacle. (Hermes and Apollo snickered that they would gladly make such a public spectacle if it meant lying with Aphrodite.)

With his first glance at the naked goddess, Poseidon fell in love.

So the sea god suggested that Ares should pay for the marriage gifts. Poseidon gladly offered to serve as guarantor: If Ares defaulted on the payment, Poseidon would pay the price and take Aphrodite as his wife. Ares did ultimately default on the debt, but Hephaestus-still smitten with his wife-did not really want a divorce at all, so he never brought it up again.
