Hermes, son of Zeus and Maya, was the cleverest and fastest of the Olympian Gods. He wore winged sandals, a winged hat, and carried a magic wand, the caduceus, symbolizing him as the messenger and protector of intellect, letters, and sciences. Also known as the giver of luck, Hermes was the God of trade, protecting merchants and travelers. Revered for his cunning, he was the patron of thieves and gamblers, and responsible for transporting souls to the underworld of Hades. Depicted as a handsome, athletic, and beardless young man, Hermes embodies agility, adaptability, and diplomacy. His winged sandals, given by his father Zeus, enable better communication and understanding with others, promoting wise speech and inventive action.
