Religion in the Hellenic polis

As much as religion was concerned , Greeks were very tolerant believing that any element in life had a spirit , therefore; minor deities for all elements of life rose . However , there were also universal deities and Zeus was the king of gods . These universal deities were known as the Olympic Gods because they used to dwell on the top of the mountain Columbus .
All Greek gods and goddesses were represented in human form acting like human beings , yet , they were different from the human beings in two main points:
A-They enjoyed superpower and extraordinary abilities .
B-They were immortals . Worship wasn’t a private affair in Ancient Hellas , so each polis had only one altar around which citizens gathered .
