There are a great many minor (and major) gods and goddesses in Greek mythology that were not part of the main group of twelve. Here are a few examples, but see the 'related links' for more.

  • Hestia (she was originally part of the twelve Olympians, until she gave up her spot for Dionysus)
  • Eros (Aphrodite's son)
  • Iris (goddess of the rainbow)
  • Persephone (the wife of Hades and the daughter of Demeter; goddess of springtime/plants)
  • Pan (god of shepherds)
