| | By the 5th century B.C., however, most of the constellations had come to be associated with myths, and the Catasterismi of Eratosthenes completed the mythologization of the stars. | | | At the time of Homer, however, most of the constellations were not associated with any particular myth, hero, or god. | | | It is ironic that the mythological characters mythological women the king of the gods so ardently pursued now revolve around him. |

| | It was a source of pride to be able to trace one's descent from a mythological hero or a god. | | | The Greeks used myth to explain natural phenomena, cultural variations, traditional enmities, and friendships. | | | On the other hand, philosophers like Xenophanes were already beginning to label the poets' tales as blasphemous lies in the 6th century BC; this line of thought found its most sweeping expression in Plato's Republic and Laws. |

Olympus in Thessaly, where in early times they were thought to dwell. | | | Obviously this is not a subject that we will be able explore in any detail.) When reading Homer and the other Greek authors it is important to pay careful attention to the myth as they present it and not to import material from elsewhere without great caution. | | | A common error among modern readers is to assume that "we know x happened" simply because x is mentioned in a modern mythological handbook. |
