Theoi.com: “A site exploring Greek mythology and the gods in classical literature and art. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive, free reference guide to the gods (theoi), spirits (daimones), fabulous creatures (theres) and heroes of ancient Greek mythology and religion…”

“This website was designed with scholars and researchers in mind, yet is easy to use and accessible to anyone with any interest in Greek mythology, regardless of knowledge level. Its design is similar to Wikipedia in that there is a general overview, an index of different sections, and links within the texts to related pages and topics within Theoi.com. It is laid out in a simple grid system, with consistently placed and sized images to open up primary categories from the home page. This grid system is carried through from page to page, each featuring the same dimensions for the primary center content, a centered header, and a left sidebar index. There is also, helpfully, a custom google search bar to allow the user to search for a specific word or phrase within the site.” (from review at https://www.thepubcast.org/2018/02/14/theoi-com-searchable-reliable-consistent)
