  • Artemis was one of the most widely venerated of the Ancient Greek deities. Her Roman equivalent is Diana. Some scholars believe that the name, and indeed the goddess herself, was originally pre-Greek. In the classical period of Greek mythology, Artemis was often described as the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo. She was the Hellenic goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity and protector of young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women; she often was depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows.

    “She was free in her wildness...
    She was a wanderess, a drop of free water...
    She belonged to no man and to no city...”
    ― Roman Payne, The Wanderess

    The moon goddess attributes of Artemis are an importation from the near east cultures. Not of Greek origin, but a bastardization.

    I don't understand the relationship of the Greek Gods and humans. Where did it come from? How did it start? apparently according to Alien Races book she is the god of creation.

      Long story short, the gods were born of nature itself.. and humans were created by the gods in their image. Artemis was the goddess of hunting, the forest, and birth.

    I've heard that the Artemis worshipped at Ephesus, with the famous statue with the many "breasts" I've heard that they really are not breasts but bull's testicles. Anybody clear this up?

    • @glenzo215
      @glenzo215 8 лет назад +6

      They are breasts and they represent Artemis' control over her sexuality against the forces of nature to procreate. She is an eternal virgin. The amputated breasts are, essentially, a symbol of her detachment from the mother-goddess role... An ascension above the bowels of the womb.

    And the worst part of it is that she was as beautiful as Aphrodite but was into girls. That's how nymphs came to be: her servants. And she was powerful AF, worshiped everywhere. Damn, best girl on Olympus!
