WHO'S ZEUS

Thousands of years ago, people believed that a god named Zeus watched over the sky and the weather.
A Greek sculptor and his men carved a statue of Zeus at a place called Olympia in Greece. No one had ever seen a statue this large made entirely of ivory and gold. Zeus sat on a throne and was so big that if you had stood on his shoulder, you'd have had to stretch to peek into his ear.
Some said that just one glance at Zeus would cause you to forget all your troubles.
Once every four years, the people around Olympia had a festival to honor Zeus. Today, more than two thousand years later, nations still meet every four years—for the Olympic Games.
The giant statue of Zeus is gone. But men of that time wrote descriptions of it, and from the descriptions, artists have drawn pictures and made models of it.
