Roman vs Greek Mythology

I am a lover of all things mythology related. When I was younger I tried to memorize all the Gods and Goddesses. I was never successful in this escapade but I found it enjoyable. The only thing that aggravated me was the difference in the Greek and Roman names. It was the one that confused me more than anything else. I would memorize the names of the Greek Gods and forget the Roman ones. I still have that same problem. I know most of the Greek Gods and what their roles are but when we switched to the Roman ones it starts to confuse me. I know the most important ones like Jupiter, Juno, Pluto and their Greek correspondents but beyond the major ones it all becomes hazy to me. I love to read but I hate to have to go back and read up to remember which Roman God relates to the Greek ones.

P.S. I commented on Malory's post
