The reason that I chose Roman Mythology was because I found many aspects about it very interesting. My favourite ancient roman god that I read about was Cupid. Many of us think that the “Cupid” is a made up person that makes people fall in love but the Romans believe that he was real. He was often described as beautiful but wanton. I learned that Cupid was the son of the love goddess Venus. Venus was jealous of Psysye (the soul that Cupid loved), Venus told Cupid to make her fall in love with the most ugly man in the world, but instead Cupid himself fell in-love with her. Cupid and Psysye named their child Voluptas (pleasure).

The type of mythology I picked was Japanese mythology. I picked this kind of Mythology because it seemed interesting in a way It talked about the three gods that made the world which were the sun goddess, Amaterasu, the moon god, Tsukiyomi and the god of the sea and storms, Susanoo. My favourite god of all was Susanoo who was banished from the heavens because he killed one of Amaterasu’s attendants in a fit of rage, destroyed her rice fields and hurled the corpse of a horse at her loom. While he was banished he was sent to the province of Izumo and helped a elderly couple kill a eight headed creature called the Orochi for the hand of the last daughter of the couple. He found a sword, which he named the Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi, which he presented to Amaterasu as a reconciliation gift and later to her descendant as proof of his right to rule.
