Are you passionate about the stories of the Greek gods? In this program you will learn about their beginnings and stories" 

The classical world has become a well-defined historical reality, which over the years has evolved to establish the essence of art under the concepts of beauty and perfection. In this way, we find Greek art, which marks a reference for Western civilization, taking its models and canons to be recreated over and over again throughout history.  

For this reason, the iconography of this period is so well known and outstanding, being a point of reference for artists all over the world. Thus, the gods are the protagonists of the best-known fables, which have been captured throughout history in canvases, sculptures, medals, vases, among others. It will be these stories that help to explain any type of phenomenon, such as the birth of mountains, times of drought, and even falling in love.   

All of the above is condensed in this program, which will be a source of knowledge for archaeology professionals who wish to explore, through art, the different approaches to classical history. Therefore, they will have a purely online program, which can be accessed at any place and at any time.
