The term 'mythical matchmaker' refers to three figures from Greek and Roman mythology: CUPID, AMOR, and EROS. CUPID is the Roman god of desire, affection, and love, often depicted as a winged cherub with a bow and arrow. AMOR is the Latin word for love, and is also the name of the Roman god of love, who is often identified with CUPID. EROS is the Greek god of love, often depicted as a handsome young man with wings. All three of these mythical figures are associated with matchmaking and romantic love.
