Assignment # 3 - Three Cultural References

In your third post, you will be expected to make a connection between your deity and three cultural references. These references may include pictures to famous works of art such as paintings or sculptures. If you find examples of these, include an image on your blog. A reference might also include pieces of music; links to the piece of music can be embedded in your blog.  You may also find a historical reference or landmark in his/her name.  Allusions to deities in works of literature, plays, or movies are also acceptable; include a sample of the passage or text which includes the reference.  Remember to use first person.

Why are we doing this?
The reason for this part of your blog is to understand why it is important to learn about myth. Cultural references to mythology surround us every day, from the names of the days of the week, to the names of the months, to examples which you will begin to explore through this assignment.
