Dear People Who Are In Charge Of Disseminating Information On Mythology,

Greek and Roman mythology may have many similarities and parallels and stuff but they are not mirror images with a name change! Go do your research! It's not like there aren't plenty of original sources available.

Love,

Fuego



Dear Disney,

Hercules was Roman. Herakles was Greek. WTF is wrong with you?

Cordially,

Fuego

they are very close...but they're not identical.

i know more about Greek than Roman, but I recently read some interesting bits on Roman mythology...like the Romans had specific gods for *parts* of their doors...there's a god of door hinges, and a god of door frames
