How did gods get their powers?
We couldn't find anything on the web for this question. We have made an assumption about how these gods got their powers. We know why people created the myths. Click the button below if you don't know already.
So you know they created the myths because they didn't understand stuff. The gods were part of this because they were the answer. It's kind of like your name. Your parents have to give you a name and they determine your name by what they think of that time. It's the same thing. The people in ancient civilizations just didn't understand something at a time so they just gave a new god a name and the power to do whatever. People didn't no where people went when they die so to find out what happened they created mythes about gods. When mythes were created people maybe said that there should be a god of death to help people pass by the river styx. Though nobody can prove that this is true because in order to know that you would have to pass through the underworld and you can only get to the underworld if your dead, and last time I checked, you can't come back to life when your dead.
Remember. We only assume that.
