First Blog Post

Salvete! Thanks for visiting my new greek mythology/ classical latin blog. I was inspired by my latin teacher to start this blog to share with you how studying a seemingly dead language and culture can be so interesting! Latin and greek mythology is highly influenced in our culture. You have probably heard of the Apollo Theatre in New York City. This theatre, which is one of the most famous music halls in the US, was named after the Greek god, Apollo. Apollo, besides being the sun god, is also the patron of music. How about that for a dead culture!

While your here, I hope you walk away having learned something about this ancient coulture. Also be entertained by my accounts of studying latin and greek at an all girl school in little old West Virginia. This is my third year studying the clasics at this school, and I am loving every moment of it. I will share will you some interesting things that I have learned as well as the hilarious comments made by my very enthusiastic classmates. Hope you enjoy!
