Reflection

Gaia: I think that Gaia is very helpful and kind because she always helped al her children when they needed her.

Rhea: I think that Rhea it's an important character because thanks to her, Zeus could survive.

Cronus: I think is very important because he saved his brothers and sister and dethroned Uranus.

Zeus: I think that is bad the fact that he is a womanizer but he is the best king of gods.

Aphrodite: I think that she is kind, but at the time mean because she complicates the others love-life.

Thor: I think that he is the best god in norse mythology and he has the same power as Zeus and more...

Poseidon: I think he is the most powerfull god and has incredible powers and I like to be him at the play. :)

Uranus: Make this character was fun but in one part of the play I didn't like what I had to do.

What is mythology?

Mythology is a relationship between legendary stories and fantastic creatures, that are based on real facts. Myths are not fiction stories, but a story transformed and enriched by fantasy.

The myths are created when one person creates a story and as soon as people in a town or in a country take it in, they modify and exagerate it, in such a way that it becomes completely different from the first version.
