| | Olympus was the residence of the divine family, the twelve most important ruling gods and goddesses of ancient Greece, who therefore were called the Olympians. | | | The deities who did not live on Olympus, such as the gods of the Underworld, the earth or the sea, would arrive when summoned by Zeus. | | | Olympus is generally identified with Mount Olympus in Thessaly, which is the highest mountain in Greece, but very often it is identified also as some mysterious region far above the earth. |

| | Both Asgard and Mt. Olympus were ruled by the supreme god of the respective mythological supreme gods, Odin and Zeus. | | | However, both Asgard and Mt. Olympus have direct connections with the earth (via the bridge or up the slopes of the mountain.) This connectedness to the realm of man is again another example of the needed tangibility of the gods by these peoples. | | | Even though the gods did not always live in Asgard or Mt. Olympus, they were the places for conferences and councils of the gods. |

| | At night a lion descended from Olympus and destroyed it. | | | Nevertheless, Upper Olympus, the distinct central base of the triple range, is Olympus proper, and it is due to this that it is named polydeira and polyptychos in poetry. | | | Therefore, if the region of northern Thessaly near Olympus is one of the first places of concentration for the Proto-Doric tribes, then the coastal area in the vicinity of Olympus in neighboring Pieria could be one of the possible areas of settlement of the Mycenean colonizers. |
