The Roman Goddess Venus De Milo, the goddess of
love and beauty, was also known in Greek mythology
as Aphrodite. In Homeric legend she is said to
be the daughter of Zeus and Dione, one of Zeus's
consorts, but in the Theogony of Hesiod she is
described as having sprung from the foam of the
sea, and etymologically her name may mean "foam-risen."
According to Homer, Aphrodite is the wife of Hephaestus,
the lame and ugly god of fire. Her lovers include
the beautiful Greek youth Adonis, Mars, Anchises
and Ares, god of war, who in later mythology was
represented as her husband.
