I recently came across a note mentioning the 'destruction of parnassus" and I believe it referenced the flight of the muses. Does anyone have anything on this?? ~~wblakesx

Is there any reason why it is written ParnassUs? I'd like to change it to Parnassos. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.2.160.84 (talk • contribs)

Parnassus is the traditional and standard English spelling, which almost invariably is the spelling used to refer to the mythological location. Parnassos is the transliterated Greek form, occasionally used to refer to the geographical location in Greece by its "native" name (although of course the real Greek name for it doesn't even use the Latin alphabet). --Quuxplusone 08:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Mt Parnassos.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

While Orpheus was living with his mother and his eight beautiful aunts on Parnassus, he met Apollo who was courting the laughing muse Thalia. Apollo became fond of Orpheus and gave him a little golden lyre, and taught him to play it. Orpheus's mother taught him to make verses for singing.

Hello Wikipedians, Does anyone know the purpose of the "culture change" section of this article? It does not mention Parnassus by name and seems to only be tangentially related to the mountain itself. Leaving it alone for now, but perhaps it ought to be connected to the rest of the article? --Solobear89 (talk) 16:48, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
