Ares, or Mars, was the Greek and Roman God of War.
The Greeks told the story of how Ares was tricked by Aphrodite (Venus) into climbing into a big masonry jar, and then Hephaestus (Vulcan) screwed the cap on very tightly so that Ares couldn't get out. In this way, the Greeks illustrated that Love can fool War.
