Artemis

The daughter of Leto and Zeus and sister of Apollon.

Artemis is one of the three virgin goddesses of the Olympians; she is the goddess of the hunt as well as the protector of animals; she is also called Kynthia (Cynthia) because she and Apollon were born on the mountain, Kynthus (Cynthus), on the sacred island of Delos; she is also referred to as the Giver of Light and the Bull Goddess.

For more detailed information on Artemis I suggest that you return to the Home Page of this site and consult the Immortals section.
