ARES was the Olympian god of war, battle lust, courage, and civil order. In ancient Greek art, he was depicted as either a mature, bearded warrior armed for battle or a nude, beardless youth with a helm and spear.

Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and procreation. Her Roman equivalent is the goddess Venus. She is identified with the planet Venus.
As with many ancient Greek deities, there is more than one story about her origins. According to Hesiod's Theogony, she was born when Cronus cut off Uranus's genitals and threw them into the sea, and she arose from the sea foam (aphros). According to Homer's Iliad, she is the daughter of Zeus and Dione.
