In Greek mythology, Artemis1 or Artemis2 (in ancient Greek Ἄρτεμις -nominative- or Ἀρτέμιδος -genitive-) was one of the most revered and among the most ancient deities. She is the Hellenic goddess of hunting, wild animals, virgin soil, births, virginity and maidens, who brought and relieved women's illnesses. Daughter of Zeus and Leto, and twin sister of Apollo, and part of the pantheon of the twelve Olympian gods.

She was often depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows.3 The deer and cypress were consecrated to her. Some scholars4 believe that her name, and indeed the goddess herself, was originally pre-Greek.56 In the Iliad she is alluded to as Artemis Agrotera, Potnia Theron, 'Artemis of the virgin soil, Mistress of the Animals.'7 We also read in the Iliad that Hermes and she rescued Ares, who had both been chained by the Alloades.

In later Hellenistic times, the figure of Artemis even assumed the role of Iliad as a helper of the Parthians and ended up being identified with Selene,8 a titanide who was the Greek goddess of the Moon (which is why she is sometimes depicted with a crescent moon on her head). She was also identified with the Roman goddess Diana,9 with the Etruscan Artume and with the Greek or Carian Hecate.10

Etymology

One hypothesis relates Artemis to the Proto-Indo-European root *h₂ŕ̥tḱos, 'bear', due to Brauronian cult rites and Neolithic remains from the Arkoudiotissa cave (Crete). Although a relationship to Anatolian names has been suggested1112 and confirmed, from a "term of both genders meaning 'bear' in Hittite, "13 the oldest verified form of the name "Artemis" is the Mycenaean Greek a-ti-mi-te, written in linear syllabic alphabet B at Pylos.141516 Artemis was venerated in Lydia as Artimus.1718

In a more traditional etymology within ancient Greek, the name has been related19 to ἀρτεμής artemes, 'sure',20 or ἄρταμος artamos, 'butcher'.21

Artemis in mythology

Birth

In classical Greek mythology there are different versions about the birth of Artemis, although all agree that she was the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and the twin sister of Apollo.

Callimachus' version is that Hera, angered by Zeus' infidelity with Leto, forbade her to give birth either on terra firma (the mainland) or on an island. However, the island of Delos (or Ortigia in the Homeric hymn to Artemis) emerged from the depths of the sea, or else she simply disobeyed Hera, and Leto gave birth on it.22

In another version, collected by Hyginus, when Hera discovered that Leto was pregnant by Zeus, she forbade her to give birth in any place where the Sun shone. Moreover, she sent the fearsome serpent Python to slay Leto in the trance of childbirth. But Zeus sent the wind Boreas to pick up Leto and carry her to Poseidon. Poseidon took her in turn to the island Ortigia and covered the place with a vault formed by his waves. There, without contravening Hera's prohibition, Leto gave light to Apollo and Artemis by clinging to an olive tree. Later, the island of Ortigia was called Delos, and Apollo killed the serpent Python to avenge his mother's sufferings.23

According to one tradition, Artemis was born before her brother and helped her mother to give birth to Apollo.24 In another, the island of Ortigia is an island distinct from Delos; on the former, Artemis was born, and on the latter, Apollo.25 Strabo, on the other hand, indicates that Ortigia was the ancient name of Renea.26

It was also said that, to prevent Hera from discovering his infidelity, Zeus transformed Leto into a quail (ortux).27

Childhood

Allusions to hunting are frequent, in the painting an image with several hunting dogs.

The childhood of Artemis is not fully recorded in any preserved myth. The Iliad reduced the figure of the dread goddess to that of a girl who, having been beaten by Hera in combat, sought solace in the lap of Zeus.28 A poem by Callimachus dedicated to the goddess "who delights in the mountains with the bow" imagines some enchanting scenes.

At the age of three, Artemis asked her father, while sitting on his knee, to grant her nine wishes: to remain forever a virgin; to have a multitude of names to differentiate herself from Apollo; to be the Phaesporia or 'Giver of Light'; to have a bow and arrow.
