In Greek mythology, a [[Charis]] (/ˈkeɪrɪs/; Greek: [[Χάρις]]) or [[Grace]] is one of three or more minor goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity, and fertility, together known as the [[Charites]] /ˈkærɪtiːz/ (Χάριτες) or [[Graces]]. The usual list, from oldest to youngest, (as given in Hesiod) is [[Aglaea]] ("Splendor"), [[Euphrosyne]] ("Good Cheer"), and [[Thalia]] ("Festivity"). In Roman mythology they were known as the Gratiae, the "Graces". In some variants, Charis was one of the Graces and was not the singular form of their name. | In Greek mythology, a [[Charis]] (/ˈkeɪrɪs/; Greek: [[Χάρις]]) or [[Grace]] is one of three or more minor goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity, and fertility, together known as the [[Charites]] /ˈkærɪtiːz/ (Χάριτες) or [[Graces]].
