Delos, the birthplace of Apollo Editing
Greek Mythology is known as a combination of early observations of nature (astronomical, geophysical and geological, etc., as well as various phenomena, climatological, meteorological, etc.), where for the interpretation of these or the causes of their creation was followed an admirable plot with human instincts, passions, aspirations and values by presenting these (observations) with allegorical anthropomorphism in a divine state, in order to receive absolute and generalized respect.
