In Greek and Roman mythology Apollo is one of the most important and multifaceted of the Olympian gods. The ideal of the kurós (beardless youth), Apollo has been variously recognised as the god of light and the sun; truth and prophecy; archery; medicine and healing; music, poetry and the arts; and more. Apollo is the son of Zeus and Leto and twin brother of the virgin huntress Artemis. He is known as Apollo in Etruscan mythology, influenced by Greek mythology. Apollo was worshipped in ancient Greek and Roman religion, as well as in modern Neo-Hellenism.
