Hi everyone! Happy Halloween and we are almost in December and also holidays! Know that we are in November; it’s almost time of Thanksgiving Day so we can spend the time with our family and eat a delicious meal. But, before we do that, I’m going to talk about a Greek Goddess, Demeter. I read about her and she is a Greek Goddess of the harvest! I didn’t know that there are so many kinds of Gods that has different characteristics and everyone is related with something of our common lives. So, here is an explanation about her “Demeter is The Greek earth goddess who brings forth the fruits of the earth, particularly the various grains. She taught mankind the art of sowing and ploughing so they could end their nomadic existence. As such, Demeter was also the goddess of planned society. She was very popular with the rural population. In ancient art, Demeter was often portrayed (sitting) as a solemn woman, often wearing a wreath of braided ears of corn.” (Lindemans, 1997) So people, here is all about her and what she represents. I think she is one of the most important goddess of Greek because of what she represents and what she taught to humanity. I also read that she is daughter of Cronus and Rhea, which means that she is Zeus’s and Poseidon’s sister Well, I hope you liked this information and continue to check this blog about the god and goddess of Greece. Also, I hoped you enjoyed Halloween!
