Family Tree
The family tree is a hierarchical representation of the Greek
deities, where each deity is symbolized by a node and the
links between them represent a parental relationship. The size
of each node is proportional to the deities's popularity.
Hovering over a node shows details about the deity. Clicking
on a node highlights the deity and its close relatives.
Clicking two different dieties shows the relationship between
them by highlighting their common ancerstor.
Sunburst Chart
The sunburst diagram presents a hierarchical view of Greek
deities, organized into main types and subtypes, with each
category portrayed as a circular sector. The size of each
sector corresponds to the deities popularity, offering a
visual representation of popularity distribution within the
hierarchy. This hierarchical structure allows for a nuanced
exploration of Greek deities, revealing their relative
importance based on both main types and subtypes.
Bar Chart
The bar chart is a simple yet effective way to visualize the
distribution of the popularity between the deities. The bar
chart is organized by the number of instances of each name
inside Google's Search Engine, with the deities with the
most searches at the top. The bar chart allows for a quick
understanding of the relative importance of each god in the
public's eye but doesn't reflect the real hierarchy that
exists between them. Since the popularity is linked to
Google searches, minor deities like Europa, Nike or Phoenix
rise to the top because the searches do not explicitly
differentiate between the gods and the brands with the same
name.
Pie Chart
A compelling way to visually represent the distribution
among a set of entities is through a pie chart. The pie
chart organizes the categories around a circle, portraying
the proportion of each category as a slice. The size of each
slice reflects the percentage or quantity associated with
the respective category. In this context, the pie chart
effectively illustrates the clear distribution of genders,
providing a quick understanding of the relative proportions
between Male and Female deities.
