The Homeric epics portrayed the many gods and goddesses worshipped by the ancient Greeks as having many of the same emotions and characteristics as human beings. The Homeric deities loved, hated, feasted and intrigued against their enemies. Most of the central figures of the Homeric epics were male warriors, and qualities emphasized in the epics were courage in battle and individual skill in combat.
