About Crypto Stamp - Heroes of Mythology: CRYPTO STAMP - Demeter, the Greek goddess of agriculture, fertility, and nature:
In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Demeter is the Olympian goddess of the
harvest and agriculture, presiding over crops, grains, food, and the fertility
of the earth.
Although Demeter is mostly known as a grain goddess, she also
appeared as a goddess of health, birth, and marriage, and had connections to
the Underworld.
She is also called Deo.
In Greek tradition, Demeter is the second child of the
Titans Rhea and Cronus, and sister to Hestia, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus.
Like her other siblings except Zeus, she was swallowed by her father as an
infant and rescued by Zeus. Through Zeus, she became the mother of Persephone,
a fertility goddess and resurrection deity.
One of the most notable
Homeric Hymns, the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, tells the story of Persephone's
abduction by Hades and Demeter's search for her.
When Hades, the King of the
Underworld, wished to make Persephone his wife, he abducted her from a field
while she was picking flowers, with Zeus's leave.
Demeter searched everywhere
to find her missing daughter to no avail until she was informed that Hades had
taken her to the Underworld.
In response, Demeter neglected her duties as
goddess of agriculture, plunging the earth into a deadly famine where nothing
would grow, causing mortals to die. Zeus ordered Hades to return Persephone to
her mother to avert the disaster.
However, because Persephone had eaten food
from the Underworld, she could not stay with Demeter forever, but had to divide
the year between her mother and her husband, explaining the seasonal cycle as
Demeter does not let plants grow while Persephone is gone.
Her cult titles include "Sito" (Σιτώ), "she of the
Grain", as the giver of food or grain, and "Thesmophoros" ("divine order", "unwritten law"),
"giver of customs" or "legislator", in association with the
secret female-only festival called the "Thesmophoria".
Though Demeter is often
described simply as the goddess of the harvest, she presided also over the
sacred law and the cycle of life and death.
She and Persephone were the central
figures of the "Eleusinian Mysteries", which promised the initiated a happy
afterlife.
This religious tradition was based on ancient agrarian cults of
agricultural communities and predated the Olympian pantheon, probably having
its roots in the Mycenaean period c. 1400–1200 BC.
Demeter was often considered to be the same figure as the
Anatolian goddess Cybele, and she was identified with the Roman goddess Ceres.
