In Greek mythology, Demeter is the goddess of the harvest, who ruled over grains and the fertility of the world. The Roman counterpart to her is Ceres. Thus, here are a few facts about the Greek goddess Demeter. I hope that you enjoy.<br />

10.Demeter was the offspring of Rhea and Cronos.<br />
<br />
9. Demeter was the goddess of fertility and crops.<br />
<br />
8. Persephone was Demeter's only daughter; Persephoneβs father was Zeus.<br />
<br />
7. She showed man the art of producing and using corn.<br />
<br />
6. A fertility celebration held in glory of Demeter called Thesmophoria was only attended by women.<br />

5. Her most notable celebration came at the harvest time but only occurred every 5 years.<br />
<br />
4. Demeter was older than Dionysus, greek god of wine and the grape harvest; They were the 2 prominent gods of the Earth.<br />
<br />
3. Demeter placed famine in the world because her daughter, Persephone, was livid over her kidnapping by Hades.<br />
<br />
2. Demeter and Persephone, her daughter, were eventually brought together again at Zeusβs order.<br />
<br />
1. Demeter was given 4 months a year with Persephone; her child would stay with Hades for the other 8.<br />
