Who is the chief festival that came at harvest time because she was the goddess of corn?
The chief festival associated with the harvest and corn is dedicated to Demeter, the Greek goddess of agriculture, grain, and fertility. She is often celebrated during the Thesmophoria, a festival honoring her and marking the harvest. In Roman mythology, her equivalent is Ceres, who also represents the bounty of the earth and the corn harvest. Both deities played a crucial role in agricultural rituals and the celebration of the harvest season.
