Before Alexander the Great’s conquest into the Armenian Highlands and the Caucuses the Armenian Pantheon was completely separate from the Greek pantheon and only had some influence from the Persian gods. When the Greeks came they mapped the Armenian gods to specific Greek gods. This doesn’t seem as a big deal but it changed who the lead deity is and what they where the deity of. Before the Greeks the lead deity of the Armenians was Astghik who was the ***goddess*** of **The Creation of the Universe, Water and Fertility.** She was a pretty big deal and she was so cool 😎. But after the Greeks they mapped her on to Aphrodite which made her the goddess of Fertility and Love which is dumb because we already had a goddess of love Anahit so what is the point of her anymore like why did y’all do that to my girl 😔 and the lead God became a man :( because of his association with Zeus.

I created my account today but trust I’m not a bot could that be the reason also I read all the rules of the community before posting so all that I post follows the community rules. I am very confused about this and no hate towards the mods that removed my posts.
