    Greek Name

    Hermês

    Translation

    Mercurius, Mercury

    HERMES was the Olympian god of herds and flocks, travellers and hospitality, roads and trade, thievery and cunning, heralds and diplomacy, language and writing, athletic contests and gymnasiums, astronomy and astrology.

    He was the herald and personal messenger of Zeus, King of the Gods, and also the guide of the dead who led souls down into the underworld.

    Hermes was depicted as either a handsome and athletic, beardless youth or as an older, bearded man, with winged boots and a herald's wand.

    HERMES MYTHS

    As a new-born infant Hermes snuck out of his crib, stole the cattle of the god Apollon, and crafted the first lyre from a tortoise-shell.

    Zeus was so amused by the young god's antics that he granted him a place as one of the twelve supreme gods of Olympos. <<More>>
