Hangman Challenges You: Name the Greek Goddesses

Let's find out her level of knowledge about mythology in this challenge!

Proposal I

We start our game by bringing the goddess responsible for protecting the crops and ensuring that the grains become fertile. This entity became known in the history of Greek mythology after the myth of her daughter's abduction by Hades, the god of the underworld. A festival that was held twice a year and represented the rebirth of life after winter was also held to honor this goddess with praise.

After his despair at having his daughter kidnapped, the cult of the goddess became associated with that of his daughter. As the entity responsible for the plantations, she dedicated her time to agricultural cultivation. The worship of her derives from cults created by agrarian communities that date back to pre-Greek peoples.

Response: Demeter, goddess of agriculture and responsible for the fertility of grains and protector of the fields.

Proposal II

One of her main characteristics is that she became known for her strong connection with war. No wonder her image is represented by a woman wearing armor. In addition to her strength, this goddess was also considered the patroness of weaving, agriculture and navigation.

To further help you figure out which one we're talking about, know that she was the daughter of a great god. Although there are several versions about her birth, the one that gained the most notoriety was the myth that she came out of her father's head, thus justifying her main characteristic.

With that last tip, it's easy to find out who we're talking about, isn't it?

Response: Athena, the goddess of wisdom.
