Demeter is the goddess of corn,grain and harvest.Demeter is the daughter of Cronus and Rhea. She is the goddess of the earth and agriculture. Her roman name is Ceres. It is said that Demeter has a daughter that is named Persephone.
I heard in a myth that one day Persephone was walking around when Hades abducted her. When Demeter came back because she was at a council god meeting She was ferocious and went to talk to Zeus. When they went and realize that is was Hades. It was to late Persephone already ate pomegranate seeds. Zeus made a deal that said Persephone had to spend 4 months each year in the underworld. While in those four months Demeter grieving her gifts from the world creating winter.
