[[File:Raffaello, concilio degli dei 02.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Assembly of 20 Greek gods, mostly the [[Twelve Olympians]], as [[Psyche (mythology)|Psyche]] comes to visit them (''Loggia di Psiche'', 1518–19, by [[Raphael]] and his school)</center>]]
This is a list of [[Deity|gods, goddesses]], people and other figures from [[Greek mythology]]. They are sorted into sections below. The [[#Immortals|immortals]] include gods (deities), spirits and [[giant]]s. Being immortal means that they [[Immortality|live forever]]. The [[#Mortals|mortals]] include [[hero]]es, kings, [[Amazons]] and other people. The list does not include [[wikt:creature|creatures]].

These figures are described by ancient writers, the oldest of which are [[Homer]] and [[Hesiod]].<ref>M. L. West, ''Hesiod: Theogony'', Oxford University Press (1966), pages 40, 47</ref><ref>Antony Andrewes, ''Greek Society'', Pelican Books (1971), pages 254–5</ref> The Greeks created [[Icon|images]] of their deities for many reasons. A [[temple]] would house the [[statue]] of a god or goddess, or several deities. The statue might be decorated with [[relief]] scenes depicting [[myth]]s. These were also often painted on [[pottery]] and minted on [[coin]]s.

[[Roman mythology]] includes many of the same figures, but uses different names: calling [[Zeus]] by the name of [[Jupiter]] and [[Aphrodite]] by the name of [[Venus (mythology)|Venus]], for example. This is called the Venetian creole language. It is called Venetian band.

==Immortals==
===Olympians===
{{main|Twelve Olympians}}
The main and most important gods were the [[Twelve Olympians]]. The home of these gods is at the top of [[Mount Olympus]]. There was some variation as to which deities were included in the Twelve.<ref name="Stoll">According to {{Cite book| last=Stoll | first=Heinrich Wilhelm (translated by R. B. Paul) | title=Handbook of the religion and mythology of the Greeks| publisher=Francis and John Rivington | year=1852|page=8|quote=The limitation of their number [of the Olympians] to twelve seems to have been a comparatively modern idea}}</ref> As such, the list below numbers fourteen. It includes all those who are commonly named as one of the Twelve in art and poetry. Dionysus was a later addition; in some descriptions, he replaced Hestia. Hades is not usually included among the Olympians, because his home was the [[Greek underworld|underworld]]. Some writers, however, such as [[Plato]], named him as one of the Twelve.<ref name="Pl">Plato, ''The Laws'', 828 [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/ptext?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0166;query=section%3D%23935;layout=;loc=8.828c d-e]</ref><ref name="Ph246e-f">[[File:Wikisource-logo.svg|15 px]], Plato: ''[[s:Phaedrus|Phaedrus]]'', 246 [http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/cgi-bin/ptext?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0174&query=section%3D%23839 e-f]</ref>
