The Greek people worshipped the Greek gods and goddesses by offering gifts for them such as jewelry, food, sacraficing animals and more. It depended on which god they were praying to and what they were praying for.

They made offerings at the altars of temples and made animal sacrifices, usually the thigh.

If they had a certain problem or wish, they would go to a certain God's or Goddess' temple. For instance, if someone had a wish of beauty or love, they go to the temple of Aphrodite.

The Greeks laid out sacrifices, burned incsence, etc. They also prayed to them, e.g. when a sailor was leaving, they would offer a sacrifice to Poseidon for a safe journey or simply pray.
