In this BONUS episode of our PR of the Gods series, we take on the reputation of Zeus - King of the Olympians.
Modern takes often reduce Zeus to a scandalous cheater or an out of control patriarch but in the ancient world, he was worshipped with deep reverence, honored as the upholder of justice, oaths, and divine order.
As his self-appointed PR team, we’re here to dig into the mythology, worship, and power dynamics behind the King of the Gods. Why was Zeus so central to ancient religion, and what does it say about how the Greeks understood power and divinity?
