If you are referring to the way that the coast looks from afar there are theorists that believe that all the continents were one large land mass a few hundred million years ago.

This is a short story I got together for a history report.
Artemis was the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo. She is the goddess of the wilderness, the Hunt, wild animals, and childbirth. She was often shown with a crescent moon above her forehead and was sometimes identified with Selene who is the goddess of the moon. Artemis was one of the Olympians and a virgin goddess. Her main job was to roam mountain forests and uncultivated land with her nymphs in attendance hunting for lions, panthers, hinds and stags. She was armed with a bow and arrows, which are her symbols, while she was hunting.
In one legend, Artemis was born one day before her brother Apollo. Her mother gave birth to her on the island of Delos, then, almost immediately after her birth, she helped her mother give birth to her brother Apollo. This was the beginning of her role as a guardian of young children and a supporter of women in childbirth. Being a goddess of contradictions, she was the protector of women in labor, but it was said that the arrows of Artemis brought them sudden death while giving birth. As was her brother, Apollo, Artemis was a divinity of healing, but also brought and spread diseases.
Artemis with her twin brother, Apollo, killed Niobes' children. They killed Niobes' children because, Niobe had boasted to Leto, which is the mother of the divine twins, that she had alot more children, which must make her superior to Leto. Apollo being offended at such an insult on his mother, informed Artemis. The twin gods hunted them down and shot them with their bows and arrows, and Apollo killed the male children and Artemis killed the girls.
Artemis was the goddess of animals, the moon, and the hunt. She loved all wild creatures creatures and was the twin sister of Apollo.

Which of the Greek deities was the protector of women in childbirth?
-definitely hera, she was the goddess associated with women and marriage
-Although Greek mythology did not have a Goddess associated specifically with these ideas, Hera would probably be the closest. She was definitely feminine and the loveliest of all the Goddesses as well as Queen of the Gods. She definitely stood up for women. In those days, women's rights basically meant that men should treat their wives well. She also expected women to behave appropriately and in accordance with social norms, however. Although other Gods and Goddesses addressed similar issues, Hera is the only Goddess who had dominion over every aspect of a woman's life.
Anyone that thinks it isn't Hera is SO DUMB!!! (no offense!) I studied her in school for I had to chose a greek or roman god or goddess to study and I choose Hera. She is the queen of Olymia and Zeus's sister and wife. Not only was she the most powerful of all of her siblings (zues, posideon, hestia, hades) but she was the only one Zeus feared. She was the goddess of femininity and women rights and Children.
