Artemis

Worked all day upon the translation of another article my sweetheart wrote and this time mainly about Artemis, who's worshipped on Crete with the name Diktynna. I have no other picture of her, but this from the museum Brauron at Vravrona on Attica, not far out from Athens' main airport.
That museum is a lovely one and shows lots of little marble statues of young children who served Artemis. Next to the museum are the remains of a temple dedicated to her. It's such a nice place there, if ever you visit Greece, a visit to this place Vravrona and its museum is worth it!

Since I was all day busy with a story on Artemis, I add this pica of her with her deer and worshippers here.
