The Greek God Zeus Zeus was considered the father and ruler of all gods and humans. ... In addition to being the father and ruler of all gods and humans, Zeus was also the lord of the sky, the rain god, and the cloud gatherer, who wielded the terrible lightning bolt and thunder. Symbols that were associated with Zeus include the eagle, the lightning bolt, the scepter, and the oak tree. In different myths, Zeus is portrayed as taking on two different roles. ... Zeus’ mother was Rhea and his father was Cronus. ... Zeus had many children with his large number of divine wives. ... Zeus also had many children during his human unions. ... Zeus actually had well over one hundred wives and may more children than are listed here. One Greek myth about Zeus that I read is called, “Zeus Outwits Prometheus—The Creation of Women”. This myth begins when Prometheus divides up an ox and tries to trick Zeus into taking and eating the bones of the animal, instead of the meat.
