This week we are talking about the God of the Arts Apollo.

Apollo was a deity whose amorous escapades are split between men and women. 

Some of the most widely known stories of love between Gods and Mortals involve Apollo in some way. 

Apollo was involved with many of the Muses, often bequeathing remarkable artists and bards in the process. He was involved with many men, including Admetos of Thessaly whom he tried to save from death. His romance with Hyacinthos is among the most iconic stories from Antiquity. 

Yet Apollo never married anyone, instead choosing to follow his desires for both men and women throughout his entire life. 

Taken together, Apollo becomes an archetype for Bisexuality in the ancient world.
