    Artemis.

    In ancient Greece, Artemis had the following major priesthoods.

    As the goddess of the hunt, the bow and arrow were the main symbol of Artemis.

    She often wears a sleeveless skirt and a cap in animal skins, and walks through the jungle hunting surrounded by Nymph attendants.

    She is the goddess of sacrifice by hunters.

    The Peloponnese's mountains of Taigetos and Eremassos were the places she frequented.

    As the goddess of midwifery, she was in charge of giving birth and delivering newborns, and she was one of the most worshipped gods in ancient Greece.

    Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, was built especially for her.

    As the goddess of the moon, in ancient hunting times, many hunting activities were carried out at night, and the fertility of women was a symbol of fertility on the earth.

    This determines the number of prey around the living environment and the number of hunting results, and the worship of the moon goddess is born.

    Each god has his own ** and holy relics, and Artemis's ** and holy relics are the deer and the bow and arrow.

    The deer is Artemis' own only sacred relic.

    Legend has it that when she saw a bull-like deer with golden shining horns in the forest, she fell in love with the golden-horned deer and finally captured the golden-horned deer, which she used as a tool to pull the chariot.

    Artemis also had a golden bow and arrow, which was said to bring sickness or health to girls.
