The Greek God Ares was the God of war and one of the Olympians. His mother was Hera and his father was Zeus. He was known to be a fierce, unforgiving warrior and he was the patron god of he Amazons. His daughter was Hippolyta, a queen of the Amazons.
In Greek mythology, Hippolyta, Hippoliyte, or Hippolyte (Ἱππολύτη) was the Amazonian queen who possessed a magical girdle she was given by her father Ares, the god of war. The girdle was a waist belt that signified her authority as queen of the Amazons. She figures prominently in the myths of both Heracles and Theseus. As such, the stories about her are varied enough that they may actually be about a few different characters.[1]
His main love was Aphrodite, but he had many loves and children.
