The Olympians - Greek Gods of Mount Olympus. In Greek mythology, the Twelve Olympians, also known as the Dodekatheo were the principal deities of the Greek pantheon, residing atop a mythical Mount Olympus.
The Olympians gained their supremacy in a war of gods in which Zeus led his siblings to victory over the Titans. The concept of the "Twelve Gods" is older than any extant Greek or Roman sources, and is likely of Anatolian origin. Ancient Greek & Roman Gods for Kids.
