“Ares was most often characterized as a coward in spite of his connection to war; he responded to even the slightest injury with outrage.”

I thought this was so interesting because he is pictured as this big, strong, powerful god; but in reality he is a coward.

“Ares was most often characterized as a coward in spite of his connection to war; he responded to even the slightest injury with outrage.“

I thought this was interesting cause when people think of war they think of someone brave, yet ares is a coward majority of the time

“The Amazons, warrior women, were his daughters. Their mother was a peace-loving nymph named Harmony.”

This was interesting because I didn’t know that the Amazons were his daughters.

I think it’s interesting and ironic how the Greeks needed Ares’ violent war tactics to win but they still resented him

The Amazons, warrior women, were his daughters. Their mother was a peace-loving nymph named Harmony.

I think it makes sense to have the amazons be his daughters. And i love that his wife was peaceful and not for war.

“Ares was most often characterized as a coward in spite of his connection to war; he responded to even the slightest injury with outrage.“

I thought this was very odd not just because that the opposite thing you would think to see in a god of war but also that he was kind of the face of the gods when it came to war. It goes to show that in a way everyone has a layer inside that is not what it seems and it shows here in ares that he is not the tough guy he wants everyone to perceive him as.

*Ares was never very popular—either with men or the other immortals. As a result, his worship in Greece was not substantial or widespread.

I thought this fact was very interesting as I thought that especially among those of the Spartans, that Ares would be a popular god for the Greeks.

“In literature Ares represents the violent and physical untamed aspect of war, which is in contrast to Athena whole represents military strategy and generalship as the goddess of intelligence.”

I like this quote because I find it funny that they are almost like complete opposites, but they are both involved in violence and war.

"Ares always took the side of Aphrodite in the Trojan War. He fought for Hector (a Trojan) until a Greek warrior pierced him with a spear that was guided by Athena. He then departed the battlefield in order to complain to Zeus about Athena’s violence."

I thought that this was interesting because Ares, the god of the bloodiest, most gruesome side of war, was very willing to fight (faithfully... to an unfaithful goddess... against the Spartans, who are the most warlike of the Greeks and therefore he should Iove?) right up until when he actually got hurt, and then sulked away to Olympus to complain to his parents about his sister. Hmm.
