In his work "Summary of the Doctrines of Zoroaster and Plato," Plethon presented a synthesis of their philosophies. He described a pantheon of gods with Zeus as the supreme sovereign, encompassing all existence in an undivided state. According to Plethon, Zeus's eldest child, Poseidon, created the heavens and governs all below, establishing order in the universe. Other deities, including the Olympians and Tartareans, are also depicted, each with specific roles in the cosmic hierarchy. Notably, Plethon portrayed the universe as perfect and eternal, existing outside of time without beginning or end.
