Anyone who’s studied Greek Mythology knows one thing to be true: the Greek Gods could be pretty big a-holes sometimes. From kidnapping brides to cursing people with incurable hunger to turning people to stone, their ancient hijinks ranged from the hilariously dark (one of them building a shrine to his dad out of the skulls of his victims) to totally and completely messed-up (another chained his enemy to a rock and had an eagle eat his liver for eternity). So yeah, Greek Mythology class was typically anything but boring.
This quiz will test your knowledge of these famous Greeks. But, there’s a catch: You’ll have to identify them based solely on their most heinous crimes. Can you remember what Poseidon’s most terrible act? What about Hades? Dig out your old textbooks you haven’t opened in years, put on your thinking cap (or, your Corinthian helmet) and let’s get started! Oh, and Googling the answers is NOT allowed!
