The Legend Of Cupid
The chubby, arrow-toting cherub who adorns modern Valentine's Day
cards wasn't always such a minor figure. Originally he (as Eros) was
thought to have arisen out of Chaos, along with Tartarus and Earth.
Cupid has always played a role in the celebrations of love and lovers.
He is known as a mischievous, winged child, whose arrows who would pierce the
hearts of his victims causing them to fall deeply in love.
In ancient Greece he was known as Eros the young son of Aphrodite,
the goddess of love and beauty.
To the Roman's he was Cupid, and his mother Venus
