Long, long ago in ancient Greece, people began telling wonderful stories - or myths - to explain the mysteries of life and death. These myths tell about brave heroes, fearful monsters, and gods and goddesses. The mightiest gods and goddesses live in a golden palace high above the clouds on Mount Olympus. Zeus, the king of the gods, and his family reign supreme over gods and mortals alike.
