Theocritus remembered an earlier role of Demeter:įor the Greeks, Demeter was still a poppy goddess, Bearing sheaves and poppies in both hands. This title was connected with the Thesmophoria, a festival of secret women-only rituals in Athens connected with marriage customs.) Thesmophoros ("giver of customs" or even "legislator," a role that links her to the even more ancient goddess Themis.Kabeiraia, a pre-Greek name of uncertain definition.Erinys ("implacable," Pausanias 8.25.50).Chthonia ("in the ground," Pausanias 3.14.5).Malophoros ("apple-bearer" or "sheep-bearer," Pausanias 1.44.3).Anesidora ("sending up gifts from the earth," Pausanias 1.31.4, as Demeter).Chloe ("the green shoot," Pausanias 1.22.3, for her powers of fertility and eternal youth).

Potnia ("mistress" in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter).In various contexts, Demeter is invoked with many epithets: Īccording to the Athenian rhetorician Isocrates, the greatest gifts that Demeter gave were cereal, which set humans apart from wild animals, and the mysteries, which give humankind higher hopes in this life and the next. A connection with the goddess-cults of Minoan Crete is quite possible. Demeter and Kore ("the maiden") are usually invoked as to theo ('"The Two Goddesses"), and they appear in that form in Linear B graffiti at Mycenaean Pylos in pre-classical times. The goddess' epithets reveal the span of her functions in Greek life. The Roman equivalent is Ceres, from whom the word "cereal" is derived.ĭemeter is easily confused with Gaia or Rhea, and with Cybele. She and her daughter Persephone were the central figures of the Eleusinian Mysteries, which also predate the Olympian pantheon. The Homeric Hymn to Demeter has been dated to sometime around the seventh century B.C.E. She is invoked as the "bringer of seasons" in the Homeric hymn, a subtle sign that she was worshiped long before the Olympians arrived. In Greek mythology, Demeter ( Greek: "mother-earth" or possibly "distribution-mother" from the noun of the Indo-European mother-earth) is the goddess of grain and agriculture, the pure nourisher of youth and the green earth, the health-giving cycle of life and death, and preserver of both marital fertility and the sacred law.
