He was preceded by his father, Sin-Muballit, who abdicated due to failing health. He extended Babylon's control throughout Mesopotamia through military campaigns.[2] Hammurabi is known for the Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest surviving codes of law in recorded history. The name Hammurabi derives from the Amorite term ʻAmmurāpi ("the kinsman is a healer"), itself from ʻAmmu ("paternal kinsman") and Rāpi ("healer").]]> 2017-07-27 02:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/MoonoverWater/w4d80h6fshmz/wish/179549385 Greece MoonoverWater https://padlet.com/MoonoverWater/w4d80h6fshmz/wish/180186571 2017-08-06 04:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/MoonoverWater/w4d80h6fshmz/wish/180186571 List three of the Greek gods and note the facts about them. MoonoverWater https://padlet.com/MoonoverWater/w4d80h6fshmz/wish/180186576 Athena:
Athena is a second generation goddess born from the father Zeus and the mother Metis, Zeus received a prophesy that said the son of Metis would be even stronger than his father, so he swallowed her whole, along with his unborn daughter, eventually Metis had a son with a mortal and he did end up being even stronger than his mortal father
Athena is the goddess of wisdom and warfare
She appeared out of Zeus's head fully grown and clothed

Poseidon:
Poseidon was the second youngest of Kronos and Rhea, he is also regarded as the second oldest in the same respect as he was disgorged second.
He is the god of the sea
He and Athena are enemies because they both wanted a city (Athens), Poseidon appeared to offer them patronage, but Athena was already conferring with the towns people, Poseidon was getting ready for a fight, but Athena suggested they have a competition of who could offer the people the most valuable gift. Poseidon struck his trident on the ground, and from it grew a salt water spring, from the spring grew horses, they were created from the foamy crest of the waves, Athena gave them the olive tree, which they accepted and became famous for, but it's ironic because their main way to export their goods was by sea.

Artemis:
Artemis was also a second generation goddess, born from Zeus and Leto, when Zeus's wife Hera learned of this, she grew angry and cursed Leto.
Artemis is the goddess of many things, theses include:
The hunt, wilderness, moon, and archery.
When Queen Niobe mocked her mother Leto for only having two children, Artemis and Apollo took their revenge by killing all fourteen of Niobe's children.]]> 2017-08-06 04:18:07 UTC https://padlet.com/MoonoverWater/w4d80h6fshmz/wish/180186576
