The Greeks created images of their deities for many purposes. A temple would house the statue of a god or goddess,
or multiple deities, and might be decorated with relief scenes depicting myths. Divine images were common on coins. Drinking cups
and other than Greek pottery"vessels were painted with scenes from Greek myths.
