Shrine to the Muses

Whispers of history and myth, within which the Muses speak to us.

In Greek mythology, the Muses were goddesses considered to be the source of inspiration for all literature, music and knowledge. Most typical accounts say that there were nine, all of them (somewhat unsurprisingly) daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the personification of memory. Although broadly associated with knowledge, the Muses themselves were each connected to a discipline; science, philosophy, art and mathematics, as well as collectively representing 'mousike' (from which we draw the English word 'music'). The original three Muses were all worshipped at the springs on the eastern slopes of Mount Helion, the festival of 'Mouseia' being held there every five years in the goddesses' honour.
