There are many myths about Artemis in Greek mythology, with varying versions and interpretations. Some popular myths include her involvement in the story of Orion, her role in the punishment of Actaeon, and her protection of young maidens.
Some stories say Orion was a hunting companion of Artemis, and she admired his skill and loved him, others say that he was a great hunter and sought out Artemis and tried to rape her - and still others say that they were hunting companions and he boasted that there was not a beast on earth he could not kill, and Gaia took offense of this. In the end Orion dies, there are a few doubts to who killed him and why, however. Slain by Artemis in wrath, is the most commonly known. Orion slain by Gaia, turned into a constellation by Artemis. Orion slain through a trick of Apollon, turned into a constellation by Artemis.
