Zeus (altgriechisch Ζεύς Zeús, klassische Aussprache ungefähr „dze-u̯s“; neugriechisch Ζεύς bzw. Δίας Días; lateinisch Iuppiter) ist der oberste olympische Gott der griechischen Mythologie und mächtiger als alle anderen griechischen Götter zusammen. Über ihm stand nur das personifizierte Schicksal – seine Töchter, die Moiren. Auch er hatte sich ihnen zu fügen. Zeus entspricht in der römischen Mythologie dem Jupiter.
