1.Mythological story of Artemis Diana:
Roman goddess of the moon and hunt, the daughter of Jupiter and Latona, the gentle night goddess, and the twin sister of Apollo. Diana is also the goddess of fertility and is usually represented as a holy maiden with a bow. Diana absorbed much of the myth of Artemis early in Roman history, including being born on the island of Delos to Jupiter and Latona and a twin brother, Apollo. is mainly regarded as the patron saint of the moon.Diana is the protector of childbirth. Historically, Diana was associated with two other Roman deities: Eglia, her servant and midwife, and Hippolytus, the god of the woodlands.
Diana was worshipped in neo-paganism, including neo-Romanism, Stregetia, and Wicca. From the Middle Ages to modern times, as the folklore associated with her developed and was eventually adapted into neo-paganism, the mythology surrounding Diana gradually included consort (Lucifer) and daughter (Yaradia), figures sometimes recognized by modern traditions. In ancient, medieval, and modern times, Diana was considered a triadic goddess, one with the goddess of the moon (Luna) and the goddess of the underworld (usually Hecate). Her pseudonym was Trivia, and the Romans described her as “Diana of the Crossroads” because her idol was placed at the crossroads. This nickname can also be explained by the fact that she has three powers over the universe: luna in the sky, Diana on earth, and Ploseppina below.
2.Artemis and the stag marble statue:
The image of Diana is complex and contains many ancient features. Diana was originally considered the goddess of the wilderness and hunting, a major sport in Roman and Greek culture. Early Roman inscriptions mainly praise her as a huntress and the patron saint of hunters. Later in the Hellenistic period, Diana began to be equally or more revered as the goddess of “taming” the country or country villa, an image common in Greek thought and poetry. The dual role of the goddess of civilization and the wilderness, and the further civilization of the countryside, is first applied to the Greek goddess Artemis (for example, in the poetry of Anacreon in the 3rd century BC). By the 3rd century AD, after the profound influence of Hellenic culture on Roman religion, Diana was almost entirely united with Artemis and had acquired many of his attributes in her clerical sphere and in the description of her appearance. The Roman poet Nemesianus describes Diana as carrying a bow and quiver full of golden arrows, wearing a golden cloak, purple half-boots, a belt fastened with jewel buckles to her tunic, and long hair tied up with a ribbon. As late as the 5th century AD, nearly a thousand years after her myth had entered Rome, the philosopher Proclus could still describe Diana as “the watchkeeper of all things in the countryside, who suppressed all things simple and uncivilized.
