The Greek gods gave the ancient Greeks a way to explain things they didn't understand. For example, the ancient Greeks used the myth of Persephone and Hades to explain the seasons. When Persephone was with Hades in the Underworld, she was miserable. So her mother, Demeter (goddess of agriculture) , kept everything from growing, causing winter. When Persephone was with her mother, she was happy, and Demeter brought summer to the world.
