The REAL Zagreus of Greek Myth | #mythology #shorts #story #facts

[ansonellis]

They say Zagreus is older then hades not realizing hades is older then Zeus

[josephmoffatt]

To my knowledge, in Greek mythology Zagreus was the god of rebirth. Which is quite appropriate considering how many times he dies in Hades.

[Agruuss]

1st, Hades is older than Zeus, 2nd, everybody thinks that Zagreus is Zeus's son becuase Hades is also known as Katochthonios Zeus which in Greek means ''Zeus of the Underworld'', that doesnt mean that Hades is Zeus... Zeus could be called ''Hades of the Skies''.. these gods are the Holy Trinity

Wow people are stupid. When he says zagreus is older he obviously isn't talking about when they were born. The Greece mythology we mainly know is effectively ancient Greek squared. Before the Greece we know there was Mycanean Greek with their myth such as Posidan being the head God or things like Perespheone seemingly being older than Hades as well as being a death god known as Dread Peresphone or Disponia

Zagreus sits inside your head
Zagreus lives among the dead
Zagreus sees you in your bed
And eats you when you're sleeping

My boy didnt ask for wings at the function he became the wings at the function 😭

I knew he was Hades' illegitimate son called that shit from attempt 1

[lance]

He knew all along. It was a conscious decision so Zagreus could cheese low tolerance stacks from Dionysus 🥶

[itz_just_meh_guess_who]

There are two possible fathers of Zagreus (according to greek authors) One is indeed Hades and the second one is indeed Zeus

[revanliem]

Little I found a girl that I like
Zeus(i still don't know who is zagreus dad):what's her name?
Little zagreus:helen!
Zeus:awww I'm sorry son but that's your "sister"
Little
Persephone:what is it dear?
Little zagreus:dad told me that the girl that I like is my sister😭
So I can't be her lover😭
Persephone:aww don't worry dear she's not your sister...

[_-drowsy-_]

Please, are we not going to question why semele just ate a human heart? 😭

[vexoris]

Yea I can tell why they eventually made hades his father instead of zeus. Considering zeus is persephone's father it would be pretty weird.

Not even his own daughter is safe from this horny bastard
