Pipe Valar / Greek and Roman gods

Yes, your eyes aren't playing any tricks on you I have indeed started a new topic after centuries of inactivity and lurking around. I've been so busy I simply had no time to post anything and I just looked in here from time to time. But now I had an idea in my head and I just had to post it here on the Downs.

I wanted to start a discussion about the differences and the similarities between the Valar and the Greek and Roman gods and by this I mean the most important gods, 12 in number for the ancients if I remember well. It's easy to notice stuff like Aule and Hefaistos, but what's more to this whole business?

Also, I will admit that I have not checked if any such topic exists, so in case there is already is something like this out there a link would be nice and then you can close the thread.

Yours,
Might
