She's the goddess of family, the home, and the hearth. In ancient Greece, the main fire in the hearth of a home was never allowed to go out in respect to her. She was one of the 12 Olympians originally, but did not enjoy the debates and arguments of the other gods, and gave up her spot to Dionysus. Hestia is the oldest of the six elder gods, who were Kronos's kids, born in this order: Hestia, Hades, Demeter, Poseidon, Hera, Zeus. I'm a Greek-geek.
