- ApolloAmong the Olympian gods the one most widely worshipped was Apollo, son of Zeus and Leto. According to Greek mythology, Leto was driven by Hera from land to land until at last Poseidon took pity on her and brought the island of Delos out of water for her to live on. There she gave birth to the twins, Apollo and Artemis.Apollo was the sun-god.
