The myth about the sun should be detailed.

Sun God and Moon God

Apollo, the sun god, and Artemis, the moon god, are children of Zeus and Leto, the Titan god. When they were about to be born, Hera forbade the earth to give Leto a place to give birth. So Zeus ordered the sea to swell to the island of Ross, and Leto gave birth to a pair of children in this life: the sun god and the moon god.

The sun god is also the god of prophecy. He declared Zeus' will to mortals, and Delphi was his most famous deity. The moon god is also the goddess of hunting, whose image is wearing hunting clothes, carrying an arrow barrel, and standing next to the sacred beast red deer.

Daphne

Apollo fell in love with Daphne, the beautiful daughter of the river god. He followed her everywhere, but she tried to avoid it. Once Apollo chased after Daphne, and when he was about to catch up, Daphne shouted, "Ah! Mother Earth, help me! " As soon as she finished speaking, a strange sight happened: her legs stood upright and could not move, a layer of gray bark appeared on her body, her hair turned into leaves, her arms turned into branches, her feet grew roots, and her head turned into treetops. When Apollo arrived, he could only catch a sleek laurel trunk, but he felt Daphne's heart still pounding.

To show his affection, Apollo picked some branches and leaves of laurel, made a corolla and put it on his head as a memorial to Daphne. The word "Poet Laureate" mentioned by later generations originated from this story.
