The stories say that Zeus and his brothers Poseidon and Hades killed their father and split his kingdom. Zeus took the land, Poseidon the sea and Hades the underworld. Nobody dared to upset Zeus, he had been known to hurl thunderbolts in a bad mood. Zeus lived on Mount Olympus, his wife was Hera and he was father to Apollo, Dionysus and Athene.

However, Atlas wasn't granted this punishment and was instead forced to carry the entire weight of the sky on his shoulders. Atlas was relieved of his duty once by Hercule's, but was later tricked into resuming his burden.

Pan's instrument of choice was known as the Syrinx. This was a flute that consisted of seven descending sized reeds placed size by side.

11 Page 11 of 11 Pegasus Pegasus was the winged horse of Bellerophon and Perseus. After the horse helped Bellerophon defeat the Chimaera, he then tried to ride the horse up into the tops of Mount Olympus.
