Wow, that was really hard. I was really channeling my high school classes there. Apparently, not much has retained in my brain.

62%! (And I’m a numbers person!) Truthfully, I guessed on a few, and used my very weak knowledge of Latin on a couple as well.

9/13. Not bad for not having read any mythology in a while. Awesome quiz!

I about jumped out of my chair when I saw the subject of today’s quiz! One of my all time favorite subjects!
I missed 2, couldn’t quite remember what it was Sisyphus did (Now, Tantalus I could remember!). And the Aeneid really threw me! Thought for sure it was the Odyssey since the Iliad ends with the death of Hector and the Odyssey was the end of the Trojan war and what followed and I knew Odysseus was the one that invented the horse! Oh well…

2/13: Sorry, I work with numbers for a living, not “fake” history. Congrats to those who did well. Most of the questions and answers made me feel like I was reading another language.

Grrr…six out of thirteen. I think that’s the first time I haven’t at least beaten the average. :(

Oh man, I only got 4 out of 13. I got Bacchus right because I thought I remembered that being the character’s name on Stargate SG-1. Shame on me.
