Goddess of Youth Hebe Juventus serving Nectar Statue Figure Sculpture Hebe in ancient Greek religion is the goddess of youth (Roman equivalent: Juventus). She is the daughter of Ze us and Hera. Hebe was the cupbearer for the gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus, serving their nectar and ambrosia, until she was married to Heracles; her successor was Zeus' lover Ganymede. Another title of hers, for this reason, is Ganymeda. She also drew baths for Ares and helped Hera enter her chariot. Hebe was supposed to have the power to give eternal youth, and in art is typically seen with her father in the guise of an eagle, often offering a cup to him. Show more
