In Greek mythology, there are usually considered to be nine muses, each of which has her own domain:

Calliope, Clio, Erato, Euterpe, Melpomene, Polyhymnia, Terpsichore, Thalia, and Urania.



In the Disney animated Hercules movie, only five of the muses were depeicted:

Calliope, Clio, Melpomene, Terpsichore, and Thalia.
