Ares Xiphos Sword
History of the Ares
ARES (Arês), the God of War and one of the great Olympian gods of the Greeks. Ares was the son of Zeus and Hera. Ares loved war for
its own sake, and delighted in the din and roar of battles. Ares represented war conducted "up close and personal", hand to hand combat,
and the frenzy of battle and bloodlust. Zeus, favored "war at a distance", strategic planning, playing according to the "rules of
the game", cold and calculating by comparison. Ares style was instinctual, passionate, and primitive...not destined to make him appear
heroic. He was seen by the ancient Greeks as a mercenary warrior.
