Pantheon (of deities)
A pantheon refers to a group of deities or gods worshipped within a particular religion or culture. Each deity typically has specific attributes, powers, and responsibilities, often associated with natural elements, aspects of life, or human experiences. For example, in Greek mythology, Zeus is the god of the sky, while Athena embodies wisdom. Different cultures have their own pantheons, like the Norse gods (e.g., Odin and Thor) or Hindu deities (e.g., Vishnu and Shiva), reflecting their beliefs, values, and traditions. These deities often interact with each other and humanity in mythology, serving as both spiritual figures and narrative characters.
