The twelve great Gods and Goddesses, considered by most mythographers to be the
ruling Pantheon, are (Gods) Zeus, Poseidon, Hephaestus, Hermes, Ares, and Apollo and
(Goddesses) Hera, Athena, Artemis, Hestia, Aphrodite, and Demeter. Hades, although a
brother to Zeus, did not frequent Olympus and, with Persephone and Hecate, remained
mostly in his underworld empire and, therefore, was not considered one of the ruling
deities

Dionysos, God of Wine
