Ares (; Ancient Greek: Ἄρης, Áres [árɛːs]) is the Greek god of courage and war. He is one of the Twelve Olympians, and the son of Zeus and Hera. In Greek literature, he often represents the physical or violent and untamed aspect of war and is the personification of sheer brutality and bloodlust, in contrast to his sister, the armored Athena, whose functions as a goddess of intelligence include military strategy and generalship.The Greeks were ambivalent toward Ares: although he embodied the physical valor necessary for success in war, he was a dangerous force, "overwhelming, insatiable in battle, destructive, and man-slaughtering." His sons Phobos (Fear) and Deimos (Terror) and his lover, or sister, Enyo (Discord) accompanied him on his war chariot. In the Iliad, his father Zeus tells him that he is the god most hateful to him. An association with Ares endows places and objects with a savage, dangerous, or militarized quality. His value as a war god is placed in doubt: during the Trojan War, Ares was on the losing side, while Athena, often depicted in Greek art as holding Nike (Victory) in her hand, favoured the triumphant Greeks.



Ares plays a relatively limited role in Greek mythology as represented in literary narratives, though his numerous love affairs and abundant offspring are often alluded to. When Ares does appear in myths, he typically faces humiliation. He is well known as the lover of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who was married to Hephaestus, god of craftsmanship. The most famous story related to Ares and Aphrodite shows them exposed to ridicule through the wronged husband's device.The counterpart of Ares among the Roman gods is Mars, who as a father of the Roman people was given a more important and dignified place in ancient Roman religion as a guardian deity. During the Hellenization of Latin literature, the myths of Ares were reinterpreted by Roman writers under the name of Mars. Greek writers under Roman rule also recorded cult practices and beliefs pertaining to Mars under the name of Ares. Thus in the classical tradition of later Western art and literature, the mythology of the two figures later became virtually indistinguishable.

Informations

Mojibake (Wen Zi Hua ke, IPA: [modzibake]), is the uncodified text result of text being decoded with an unintended character encoding. This is the systematic replacement of symbols by completely unrelated symbols, often using a different writing system. In places where the binary representation has been invalidated, this display can include the generic replacement character (). Multiple consecutive symbols can be substituted if the binary code is used in both encodings. This could be due to different constant length encodings (e.



g. Asian 16-bit encoders vs European eight-bit encoders) or variable length encoders (such as UTF-8 or UTF-16). Failed rendering of glyphs is caused by missing fonts, or missing glyphs within a font. This is a separate issue and should not be confused with mojibake. Blocks with the code point displayed as hexadecimal, or using the generic substitute character are signs of failed rendering. These replacements are valid, and the result of the correct error handling by software.
