Symbols were often tied to the myths of Artemis, she used arrows and a bow as a hunting goddess, so those were among her symbols, as well as a chariot - sometimes said to be pulled by deer - the golden hind was sacred to her, and hunting hounds, as well as the lyre she often holds in art but rare in literature.
Deer, as mentioned above, were scared animals to this goddess, as well as boar because it once was sent to Oineus, to ruin his lands and was hunted by great heroes as well as it killing Adonis; and bear - among other instances the most well known is that Callisto was turned into a bear; Artemis Limnaia (Lady of the Lake) was also a goddess of lakes so fresh-water fish were scared to her, she turned the sisters of Meleagros -who she had killed- into guinea-fowl.
Partridges were sometimes told to be the darlings of Artemis. As it was scared to Leto, the quail became one of Artemis' birds and the island she was born on was named Ortygia after it. When hawks became a popular animal to attribute to gods and goddesses of Greece, the buzzard hawk was called Artemis scared bird.
Plants include Amaranth, a wild flowering shrub, Asphodel which was connected to the gods of the underworld and to Artemis in connection with Hecate and Persephone.
The cypress tree was associated with the birth of Artemis (and Apollo) because the island Ortygia apparently had a grove of them, under which the twin gods were born.
The palm trees of Delos, a island also named the birthplace of Artemis and Apollo, were also sacred to them.
