Question

We get our concept of the "hero" from ancient mythology, but we have also seen that few ancient heroes would actually fulfill our expectations of what it means to be a hero. Of the following, which would best fit into our modern view of the "hero"?

Answer 1

There were five ages of mankind, according to Hesiod, the poet who, along with Homer, wrote the first guides to ancient Greek religion and customs.

Zeus, the king of the Greek gods, created a race of men who were particularly powerful and noble in the fourth of these ages. They were mortals, but they had "god-like" abilities.

According to ancient genealogy, the Heroic Age spanned approximately 6 generations and was the time of legendary figures such as Perseus, Heracles, Jason, Achilles, and Odysseus. During the 4th Age, all of ancient Greece's greatest heroes lived. It was an exciting time, but it was also a time of turmoil and bloodshed.
