Mrs. Miller's Myth Oscillum Project

Hi, EGRHS students! It's a beautiful autumn day and almost the weekend, but first you have a Latin project! Here are some sites that may help you. You can also click on them from the right side of the page. If these are helpful, post a comment. We also have many mythology books and borrowed some picture books from Wealthy Elementary. Thanks, Wealthy, for sharing your books!

You may not have thought of this, but the Artcyclopedia is an excellent resource for finding sculptures, paintings, and drawings. Try typing in a name, such as "Hercules" in the title bar and you'll (hopefully) find many works of art with Hercules as the subject.

Mythweb is a fun site to use because it looks like a comic strip. There is a lot of information here, too, though, so take a look!

Another great site recommended by Mrs. Miller is Encyclopedia Mythica.

The best site I've found for locating individual Gods and Goddesses is at Infoplease. Check it out!

This one is pretty simple to find: Greekmythology.com. I don't know much about it, but it seems to have a lot of solid information.

Finally, take a look at this very thorough, scholarly site - The Perseus Project. It was created and is maintained by Tufts University. Do you know where Tufts is located?
