Background Information about this website


My name is Evangelia Hatzitsinidou and I am a web developer and recent teacher in Informatics from Athens, Greece. I created this website because I am passionate over the ancient Greek culture and would like to provide this website's visitor with a brief insight in the wonderful Greek Mythology and Religion.

All information in this website is primarily taken from ancient Greek writings(see below). However, oftentimes some information is an amalgamation of various myths. Please don't view the material as being from an authoritative source, since I am only a hobbyist in Greek Mythology. Furthermore, please consider that it is a work in progress and by no means is complete- however, I am striving to update it frequently with further content.

Needless to say, you can link to my website if you like and make free use of any information or media provided within the website. All the images are either from my personal collection or collected from sources which either place their images in the public domain, abandon their copyright, or have expired copyright.

Feel free to send me any comments or suggestions for improval you may have.
You can contact me at evie@greek-gods.info, or just use the contact form. I would be happy to hear from you.

Have a nice stay and thank you for visiting my website!
