In antiquity, Greek religion took many forms, beginning with a basic animism (worship or veneration of vague powers everywhere at work in the world around humanity) and then culminating in a modified monotheism, with a supreme divine power ruling the world with assistance from lesser deities. In-between, during the Classical Period, Greeks practiced polytheism, whereby particular gods and goddesses were seen as guardians of particular spheres of human and natural life.
