Theomachy
A theomachy is a battle among gods in Greek mythology. An early example is the Titanomachy (War of the Titans), in which the Olympian Gods fought against the preceding generation, the Titans. The war lasted ten years and resulted in the victory of the Olympians and their dominion over the world. Another case is the Gigantomachy. In the ''Iliad'', multiple theomachies occur. One is fought between Diomedes with the direct aid of Athena against Ares (part of Diomedes' ''aristeia'' in Book 5). Ares is wounded by the spear guided by Athena; this is the first theomachy to occur chronologically in the ''Iliad''. Book 20 begins with Zeus' grant of permission to the gods to participate in the battle and is traditionally known under the title ''Theomachia''. In Book 21 (478ff.) there is fighting between Hera and Artemis. This battle is shown by Homer to be almost playful as Hera is smiling while she boxes the ears of Artemis, which causes Artemis to fly away in tears. Seeing this, Hermes refus ...
