The goddesses of the hearth are primarily associated with the home and domestic life. In ancient Greek mythology, Hestia is the goddess of the hearth, symbolizing family and domesticity. In Roman mythology, her equivalent is Vesta, who also represents the sacred fire of the hearth and the protection of the home. Both goddesses emphasize the importance of the household and community in their respective cultures.
