Returning to the earth with Demeter.

i have the same question
Demeter's is a cornucopia. Cornucopias are the woven cones with fruit or wheat inside of them, usually being used during thanksgiving nowadays. Grains or wheat are also some icons of Demeter but usually Cornucopias are the most accurate icon for her. She is the goddess of harvest, agriculture or the fertility of the planet. Because of that, some people think that animal life is also part of her icons, such as cows.
No, she's the goddess of harvest- however, apparently pigs were among those animals considered sacred to her.
Demeter asked poseidon to make the most buteful animal the world has ever seen
To impress Demeter since Demeter asked him to create the most beautiful animal, so that she would start liking him. But after a lot of mistakes(zebra, giraffe, camel) Poseidon finally made the horse but he no longer liked Demeter anymore.
Demeter has many representations, but I've never heard of the lion. My best guess is that it's because she can be quite a roaring word that begins with "B" and rhymes with "witch".
