Atlas: A Collection of Learning Tools

In Greek mythology, Atlas was a Titan, one of the ancient gods who ruled before Zeus and the Olympians. When the Titans rebelled against Zeus in the great Titanomachy (the ten-year war between Titans and Olympians), Atlas fought on the losing side.

As punishment for his defiance, Zeus condemned him to hold up the heavens for all eternity — to literally bear the weight of the sky upon his shoulders. Contrary to popular imagery, Atlas wasn’t holding the Earth — he was holding the celestial sphere, keeping the sky and the Earth apart.

Many hands make light work. This page is dedicated to the continuation of knowledge, from beginner to advanced. I claim no authority over these myths, legends, or fables, but I hope to help carry the light of learning onto anyone who finds it interesting. Below are learning aids. Nothing more. Nothing less. If you find a gap in what you are looking for please send me a message. As a master researcher and maker of the complex clear I’ll jump to fill the space.
