The struggle of the Olympian Gods with the Giants (a fragment of a modern reconstruction of the frieze of the Pergamon Altar (the altar of Zeus in Pergamon c. 180-159 BC), Berlin Museum, Germany, Hellenistic architecture, ancient mythology) Before us are two goddesses and two giants (giants are easy to distinguish from the titans by the serpentine lower body), from left to right: two Moira (goddess of fate) Lachesis and Atropos deal a mortal blow to Agria and Foant with their bronze maces. Agria and Foant (aka Toon) are giants, the sons of Gaia. The picture is associated with the struggle of the gods with the giants in ancient Greek mythology, during which the giants were destroyed by the gods. The date of creation of the Pergamon Altar fluctuates between 180 and 159 BC. A few centuries later, frieze motifs had a strong influence on the development of Roman art.
