the homeric hymn to hermes invokes him as the one"of many shifts(polytropos),blandly cunning,a robber,a cattle driver,a bringer of dreams,a watcher by night,a thief at the gates,one who was soon to show forth wonderful deeds among the deathless gods."[2]

hermes,as an inventor of fire,[3]** a parallel of the titan,prometheus.in addition to the syrinx and the lyre,hermes was believed to h**e invented many types of racing and the sport of wrestling,and therefore was a patron of athletes.[4]
according to prominent folklor**t meletinskii,hermes ** a deified trickster.[5]hermes also served as a psychopomp,or an escort for the dead to help them find their way to the afterlife(the underworld in the greek myths).in many greek myths,hermes was depicted as the only god besides hades,persephone,and hekate who could enter and le**e the underworld without hindrance.

in the fully-developed olympian pantheon,hermes was the son of zeus and the pleiade maia,a daughter of the titan atlas.hermes' symbols were the rooster and the torto**e,and he can be recognized by h** purse or pouch,winged sandals,winged cap,and the herald's staff,the kerykeion.hermes was the god of thieves because he was very cunning and shrewd and was a thief himself from the night he was born,when he slipped away from maia and ran away to steal h** elder brother apollo's cattle.
in the roman adaptation of the greek religion(see interpretatio romana),hermes was identified with the roman god mercury,who,though inherited from the etruscans,developed many similar character**tics,such as being the patron of commerce.
