Yes and no. The Romans dropped a little in the translation. (Fwiw, Eros had more than one interpretation on the Greek side as well.) “Cupid,” who more typically had the form seen in this particular page, is broadly thought of as a little fluttery dude that goes around shooting arrows at people to make them fall in love. He was the son of Aphrodite. He was a much later-invented god. /Eros/, on the other hand, predated the gods and predated the Titans, and was literally somewhere around the third to fifth oldest entity in creation, much of which he was responsible for.
I’m only meaning to make the point that people who aren’t scared of this guy ought to be. :^)
Man, you people are mistaking Eros for Cupid. That’s like saying “I like spicy foods, pepper spray can’t be that bad.” :^)Uhm….Eros is the Greek counterpart to his other Roman counterpart, Cupid. 8/
