Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Farmers grow crops and provide us with their crop. Which god would we thank for this?

Answer: Demeter

Demeter is the goddess of agriculture. Her daughter is Persephone, goddess of springtime and wife of Hades.
2. Do you have a perfect family in your eyes? If so, do you know whom to thank? If not, don't curse him/her, as she/he is very vengeful.

Answer: Hera

Hera is the goddess of marriage and families. She is the wife of Zeus and mother to several gods and goddesses. However, she can't keep her husband from having affairs. One of his famous children whose mother is not Hera is Perseus.
3. The world is mostly in balance. Which god is responsible for this?

Answer: Nemesis

Nemesis is the goddess of balance and revenge. She is minor, not having a seat on the Olympian Council. Since she is the goddess of revenge, you call your worst enemy your nemesis.
4. If your country does well in war, what god would you thank for this?

Answer: Ares

Ares is the god of war. The Spartan warriors called for his help when needed.
5. Do you have a high IQ? Are you wise? Do you always win in Stratego and that strategy game you get a kick out of? Are you the top student in your art class? Who might you thank for that?

Answer: Athena

Athena is the goddess of wisdom, arts, and war. She is a brain baby (literally!). She came out of Zeus's head in armor and as a full grown woman. Her mother is not Hera but she is no demigod child.
6. You walk by, and girls/boys adore you. They claim that angels sing when you walk by. You obviously have good looks and have successful relationships. You're a heartbreaker -- who would you thank?

Answer: Aphrodite

Aphrodite is the goddess of love. She is married to Hephaestus, and dating Ares. Once, Hephaestus catches her in bed with Ares and brings other Olympians to laugh at them.
7. You grow those grapes in your vineyard in the backyard. Your wine sells like hot cakes. Who would you thank after every rise in sales?

Answer: Dionysus

Dionysus is the god of wine and husband to Ariadne. He was given the 12th seat in the Olympian Council by Hestia, which unbalanced the Council (seven men, five women), but prevented war.
8. You're the boss. You always make decisions. Who would you thank or curse for this?

Answer: Janus

A powerful deity in Roman mythology, the figure of Janus is one of few among the ancient pantheon that does not have a Greek counterpart. During his reign as King of Rome (about 700 BCE) Numa Pompilius revised the Roman calendar and introduced two new months. The new leading month of the year, Januarius (or January), was named for this high-ranking god.
9. Do you love horses? Do you also love swimming and cruises? Which god would you thank for these things?

Answer: Poseidon

Poseidon is the god of the sea and created horses out of sea foam. In Roman mythology he is known as Neptune. His chariot is pulled by hippocampi (half horse, half fish).
10. Our sun rises and sets. To make sure it does that, who rides the Sun Chariot from east to west?

Answer: Apollo

Apollo is the sun god. He is also the god of hunting, prophecy, and music. His twin sister is Artemis, goddess of hunting and the moon.
