Information:  - Heracles ( "Hrakls", from "Hra", "Hera"), born Alcaeus ("Alkaios") or Alcides ("Alkeids"), was a divine hero in Greek mythology, the son of Zeus and Alcmene, foster son of Amphitryon and great-grandson and half-brother (as they are both sired by the god Zeus) of Perseus. He was the greatest of the Greek heroes, a paragon of masculinity, the ancestor of royal clans who claimed to be Heracleidae and a champion of the Olympian order against chthonic monsters. In Rome and the modern West, he is known as Hercules, with whom the later Roman emperors, in particular Commodus and Maximian, often identified themselves. The Romans adopted the Greek version of his life and works essentially unchanged, but added anecdotal detail of their own, some of it linking the hero with the geography of the Central Mediterranean. Details of his cult were adapted to Rome as well.  - Anahit was the goddess of fertility and healing, wisdom and water in Armenian mythology. In early periods she was the goddess of war. By the 5th century BC she was the main deity in Armenia along with Aramazd. The Armenian goddess Anahit is related to the similar Old Persian goddess Anahita. Anahit's worship, most likely borrowed from the Iranians during the Median invasion or the early Achaemenid period, was of paramount significance in Armenia. Unlike Iranians, Armenians incorporated idol-worship into the cult of Anahit. Artaxias I erected statues of Anahit, and promulgated orders to worship them.  - Vahagn Vishapakagh ("Vahagn the Dragon Reaper") or Vahakn was a god of fire and war worshiped anciently and historically in Armenia. Some time during Ancient history, he formed a "triad" with Aramazd and Anahit. Vahagn was identified with the Greek deity Heracles. The priests of Vahévahian temple, who claimed Vahagn as their own ancestor, placed a statue of the Greek hero in their sanctuary. In the Armenian translation of the Bible, "Heracles, worshipped at Tyr" is renamed "Vahagn".  - Aramazd was the chief and creator god in pre-Christian Armenian mythology. The deity and his name were derived from the Zoroastrian deity Ahura Mazda after the Median conquest of Armenia in the 6th century BCE. Aramazd was regarded as a generous god of fertility, rain, and abundance, as well as the father of the other gods, including Anahit, Mihr, and Nane. Like Ahura Mazda, Aramazd was seen as the father of the other gods, rarely with a wife, though sometimes husband to Anahit or Spandaramet. Aramazd was the Parthian form of Ahura Mazda.  - In the earliest prehistoric period Astghik , or Astlik , ( Armenian :  ) had been worshipped as the Armenian pagan deity of fertility and love , later the skylight had been considered her personification , and she had been the wife or lover of Vahagn . In the later heathen period she became the goddess of love , maidenly beauty , and water sources and springs . Her worship was derived from the two Indian princes who took refuge in the region of Armenia . The Vartavar festival devoted to Astghik that had once been celebrated in mid July was transformed into the Christian holiday of the Transfiguration of Christ , and is still celebrated by the Armenians . As in pre-Christian times , on the day of this fest the people release doves and sprinkle water on each other with wishes of health and good luck . With Aramazd , the father of all deities , the creator of heaven and earth , ( the sun being worshiped as his personification ) and Anahit that had been worshiped as Great Lady and Mother Deity ( the moon being worshiped as her personification ) , she forms an astral trinity in the pantheon of Armenian heathen deities . In the period of Hellenistic influence , Astghik became similar to the Greek Aphrodite and the Mesopotamian Ishtar . Her name is the diminutive of Armenian  ast , meaning `` star '' , which through Proto - Indo - European * hstr is cognate to Sanskrit st , Avestan star , Pahlavi star , Persian sitara  , Pashto storai , etc. Her principal seat was in Ashtishat ( Taron ) , located to the North from Mush , where her chamber was dedicated to the name of Vahagn , the personification of a sun - god , her lover or husband according to popular tales , and had been named `` Vahagn 's bedroom '' . Other temples and places of worship of Astghik had been located in various towns and villages , such as the mountain of Palaty ( to the South - West from Lake Van ) , in Artamet ( 12 km from Van ) , etc. The unique monuments of prehistoric Armenia , `` višap '' vishaps ( Arm . višap ' serpent , dragon ' , derived...
