ANNOUNCEMENT! & Liv Reads the Iliad: Book Twelve

A very exciting announcement! And, Liv reads Book Twelve of the Iliad, translated into prose by Samuel Butler. This is not a standard episode, it's simply a reading of the Iliad. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads the..." in the title!

Here's a list Greek to Roman names to help you out:Zeus = Jove/Jupiter

Hera = Juno

Athena = Minerva/Pallas Minerva

Ares = Mars

Aphrodite = Venus (Cyprian goddess); also sometimes her mother is Dione

Poseidon = Neptune

Hades = Pluto

Hermes = Mercury

Kronos = Saturn

Artemis = Diana

Leto = Latona

Odysseus = Ulysses (I think he's the only mortal with a name change, the Romans were weird)

Heracles = Hercules

(Not Latin, but Achaeans/Danaans = Greeks, Argives = from Argos, Ilius = Troy, Dardanian = ally of Troy, Alexandrus = Paris)
