What Greek goddess was kidnapped and who kidnapped her?

One myth recounts the story of Demeter's daughter, Persephone, whose beauty had so empassioned Hades, the God of the Underworld, that he tore open the face of the earth, and rode his horses up through the chasm to snatch Persephone away and take her to the Underworld to be his wife and queen. Demeter, the goddess of the harvest, was so despondent at losing her daughter that the earth froze over, and he crops withered and died. Zeus, realizing that the earth could not survive if this were to continue, demanded Hades return Persephone to her mother. However, once a soul has consumed food while in the Underworld, their return to the earth is impossible. Hades, prior to surrendering Persephone, had tricked her into eating a number of pomegranate seeds. As a compromise, Persephone, although permitted to return to the surface and be reunited with her mother for the balance of the year, was required to sit as Goddess of the Underworld one month for every pomegranate seed she had consumed while with Hades. During Persephone's tenure in the Underworld, her mother, Demeter, languishes, causing the earth to experience its winter. Upon Persephone's return every year, Demeter's joy causes the earth to experience its spring and summer seasons.


Why do you need a gold coin to get into hades?

Because if you have no money to pay the ferryman, Charon, he will not row you across the river Styx and you will have to wander the shores of the river for one hundred years. This is also true for people whose bodies are left unburied.


What was the Roman name for Persephone?

Proserpina (sometimes spelt Proserpine,Prosperine or Prosperina) is an ancient Roman goddess whose story is the basis of a myth of Springtime. Her Greek goddess' equivalent is Persephone. The probable origin of her name comes from the Latin, "proserpere" or "to emerge," in respect to the growing of grain. Proserpina was subsumed by the cult of Libera, an ancient fertility goddess, wife of Liber and is also considered a life-death-rebirth deity.She was the daughter of Ceres, goddess of agriculture and crops and Jupiter, the god of sky and thunder.
