Leto – Mythopedia Other local traditions modified Artemis’ place of birth instead of Apollo’s According to these, while Apollo was born on Delos, Artemis was born in either Ortygia or Coryssus in Ephesus (which housed one of Artemis’ most important ancient temples)—or, alternatively, somewhere on the island of Crete The Wrath of Leto

Iphigenia - Mythopedia But when Iphigenia arrived, Agamemnon had her brought to Artemis’ altar to be sacrificed In most versions of the myth, Artemis rescued Iphigenia before she could be killed, replacing her with a deer (or some other animal) The girl was then spirited away to a remote sanctuary of Artemis Sacrifice of Iphigenia by Charles de la Fosse (ca 1678)
Agamemnon - Mythopedia The prophet Calchas soon revealed the reason: Agamemnon had offended the goddess Artemis (either by killing one of her sacred deer, boasting that he was a better hunter than she, or simply happening to be the future conqueror of Artemis’ beloved Troy) In order to placate her, Agamemnon was ordered to sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia
Diana – Mythopedia Diana was also associated with the underworld and liminal zones—the boundaries separating the living from the dead and the wild from the civilized Though she was a Roman goddess, much of Diana’s mythology and personality originated elsewhere Diana was heavily based on Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunting and nature
Asteria – Mythopedia It is possible that a figure named as “Delos,” sometimes depicted alongside Apollo and Artemis in ancient art, represents this altered form of Asteria Family Asteria was a daughter of Coeus and Phoebe, two of the original twelve Titans born to Gaia and Uranus She had one sister, Leto, the mother of Apollo and Artemis
