Hier zijn de persoonsgegevens van Ourea:

In Greek mythology, the Ourea (Ancient Greek: Οὔρεα, romanized: Oúrea, lit. 'mountains', plural of Οὖρος) were progeny of Gaia, members of the Greek primordial deities, who were the first-born elemental gods and goddesses. The ourea are also referred to by their Roman name, Montes.[1] They were produced alongside Ouranos, the sky, and Pontos, the sea.[2] According to Hesiod:

And [Gaia] brought forth long hills, graceful haunts

of the goddess Nymphs who dwell amongst the glens of the hills.[3]

The ten ourea, Aitna, Athos, Helikon, Kithairon, Nysos, Olympus I, Olympus II (Mount Uludağ), Oreios, Parnes, and Tmolus, like Uranus and Pontus, were parthenogenetic offspring of Gaia alone. The Greeks rarely personified an individual mountain; an exception might be Tmolus, both a king and a mountain in Lydia. However, in classical art, they were depicted as bearded male faces appearing from the sides of the mountains.[1] Each mountain was said to have its own local nymph, an oread.
