Home of the
Muses
After Zeus led the war against the
Titans and established himself as the leader of the
Olympians, he feared that, even though he might be immortal,
his great victories and decisions might soon be forgotten.
Longing for a way to preserve the memory of his many great
feats, he dressed as a shepherd and went to find Mnemosyne,
the goddess of memory. They slept together for nine nights
before he returned to his home on Mount Olympus. Months
later, Mnemosyne gave birth at Pieria at the foot of Mount
Olympus for nine days, each day delivering a daughter.
Collectively they were known as the Muses and were described
as "having one mind, their hearts set upon song and their
spirit free from care."
No banquet on Mount Olympus was complete without them. Seated
near the throne of their father, they entertained the guests,
singing of the greatness of Zeus, the glorious deeds of the Greek
heroes and the creation of the heavens and the earth and all its
creatures. The nine Muses are Calliope, Clio, Melpomene, Euterpe,
Erato, Terpsichore, Urania, Thalia, and Polymnia. All tales and all
songs, and all inspired knowledge come from the Muses. The Muses
are also credited with the invention of the letters and their
poetic combination.
