Artemis (Diana)

The goddess Artemis changed Actaeon into a stag. Actaeon accidentally stumbled upon Artemis and her followers while they were bathing. In revenge, Artemis turned him into a stag by splashing water on him. He was then torn to pieces by his own hounds.

He was Apollo, the god of the sun, music, and archery.

Hera was bitter over Zeus' infidelity. When she found out that Alcmene was carrying Zeus' child, she was livid. She focused all of her hatred on the offspring of their union, Heracles.

Artemis is the Greek goddess of the hunt, the moon, fertility, childbirth, and the protector of girl children up into the age a marriage.

My favorite season is summer. My birthday is in summer. But there are many reasons I love summer. I absolutely love swimming. No school is probably the best thing about summer though. Sincerly Yours, zania1515

Some quote nets, but this is likely identification with Britomartis or Diktynna.

Artemis was the goddess of the Hunt, the moon, virginity, wildlife, and childbirth. She loved all wild creatures creatures.

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, virginity, and childbirth. She was often known with the crescent of the 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 is 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 a lot 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 is the Goddess of the Moon. She is also the Goddess of Hunting and Protector of the forest. Her brother, Apollo, was the God of The sun, God of Music and God of Healing.

Artemis was conflated with the older personification of the Moon, Selene. She was the daughter of the Titan, Hyperion, and her brother was Helios. The Greeks still call the moon by her name. Her Roman counterpart was Luna.

The goddess Artemis asked Zeus for a fleet of 60 nymphsfor her birthday.

It was built at Ephesus (present day location, western Turkey near the city Selcuk) in the 6th century BC.

In Greek mythology, Artemis was regarded as the goddess of the hunt, of wild animals, and of the wilderness generally. She also was thought to be the goddess of childbirth and virginity (rather an odd combination, but it goes back to her birth, where she gave her mother no pain).

Apollo, in some myths, was said to have killed Orion, Artemis' companion, by sending a giant scorpion to sting him. It is debatable that Artemis even loved Orion. In many other myths, it is Artemis that killed Orion.

Selene: a moon or crescent moon

Artemis: deer, bears, a cypress tree, dogs, birds, crescent moon, and a bow and arrow

Hecate: paired torches, keys, and dogs

Persephone: a torch

A short tunic that went down to her knees. It kept her legs free so she could run. She wore flat heeled sandals on her feet. She had her quiver full of arrows on her back and a bow in her hands. She probably would have a belt with a hunting knife or dagger hanging off it. She is usually depicted has having braided auburn hair. On her head, she wore a tiara with a crescent moon on it.

Diana is actually the Roman form of Artemis so her accomplishments are mostly the same ones as Artemis. There are few differences though I couldn't tell you exactly what her greatest achievement was but if you look up the ROMAN goddess Diana you might have more luck.

Artemis is so important to the Greeks because she was goddess of the hunt, protector of wild game, and watcher over childbirth also she, along with her twin brother Apollo, were guardians of the Olympians

I assume you mean the gifts Zeus gave Artemis on her third birthday. They are:

1. To be a virgin forever.

2. A silver (or gold) bow and arrows forged by the cyclops.

3. To be dressed in a short tunic so her legs would be free to run.

4. All the mountains to be her domain.

5. A fleet of 60 nymphs to be her hunting companions.

6. A pack of hounds to hunt with.

Her father is Zeus and her mother is Leto. She has a twin brother named Apollo.

Her grandfathers are Cronos and Coeus. Her grandmothers are Rhea and Phoebe. Her uncles are Poseidon and Hades. Her aunts are Hera, Demeter, and Hestia.

Since all the gods are related, she has a very large extended family.

She had four stags with silver (or gold) antlers that drove her chariot. The fifth one escaped her when she was a young goddess. That became her sacred hind. Some myths say after Hercules caught it for one of his labors and after showing it to Eurystheus, he gave it to Artemis as a thank you for letting him leave her forest with the hind.

The Greek goddess Artemis is not depicted carrying a scepter. She is depicted as a young huntress carrying a bow and arrows. The goddess with a scepter is Hera, queen of the gods.

She was the goddess of the wilderness and wild animals, it was natural that as people began to hunt, these animals would be seen as under Artemis' domain and protection, so they would prey for a good hunt - as she was thought to hunt within the wilderness - and if the hunters were successful she was given part of the kill, and if not, it was probably told that the hunters had offended her.

The Temple of Artemis was made out of marble, save the roof.

Artemis, as the goddess of the Hunt, probably would have worn earth tones (creams or light browns), and maybe white. When depicted as the goddess of the moon, she is shown wearing silver, or light blue.

She has helped her mother, Leto, give birth to her brother Apollo, she has won a vow of chastity for herself and her fellow nymphs, she is a huntress and a goddess of the wilderness. That's only, however, the beginning.
