Artemis is a mythic goddess, the difference is that a legend is younger then a myth and less rooted in ancient religions.

Most attribute Artemis to the ancient peoples of Greece, but there is some evidence that a goddess of her likeness was worshiped by older peoples then the Greeks under perhaps a different identity.
