I dèi erano venerati nelle antiche culture.

English Translation

Gods were worshipped in ancient cultures.

Shouldn’t this be “gli dèi”, “the gods”? “Dèi/dei” (plural of “dio”) is known to be a weird exception for taking “gli” as its article. Correct me if I am wrong, please.

Ciao, I think you’re right. It is something to do with “iddei” being the original word hence gli is used. Cordiali saluti!

Out of curiosity, when I was on holiday in the Amalfi Coast, I walked the “Sentiero Degli Dei” https://ilsentierodeglidei.net/
I wondered the same thing as you!
