They worshipped Iris in recognition of the virtues of kindness, as she was a mediator even for the Gods themselves when they quarreled. Iris was the resolver of disputes, a shape shifter to say the least, and also akin to a deep and dark primordial source of which here, I Dare not speak...
Sincerely,
A devotee of the Goddess Herself.

Who is the goddess of the rainbow?
Hannah Sullivan. She sure loves the rainbow.. yep. that would be HANNAH SULLIVAN! I don't know if I'd use the word goddess so much as janitor. You make the call when you meet her. And there is this beautifuly smelling new perfume made in China these days. She hates it. Don't let her dreadful tastes affect yours though. Please don't waste your time reading any further than this. She is not worth it. Never, ever will be. She is a very kind person, though of course she can be quite hilarious when she says "ummm, ummmm..." while raising her hand in language arts class. If I had to say anything else about her, it would be that she belongs in the emo corner for sure. Where the good people such as me, do not belong. She is also a perfectly amazing farmer. From Farmville. yes, that is Hannah Sullivan, roman goddess of the rainbow.
