Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier3
Wikipedia's article on Ares, the lower tier reflecting a crowd sourced, continuously edited encyclopedia entry rather than a peer reviewed or institutional source. It is useful here for a well referenced general summary of his cult, iconography and mythic role, and is cited for corroborated factual detail rather than for interpretation. NotesWikipedia's community maintained article on Ares. Consulted 2026-08-11 for his epithets and attributes, the Mars identification (noting Mars held a far more dignified place in Roman state religion than Ares held in Greek religion), and the Odyssey episode of his affair with Aphrodite.
