Twin sister of Apollo, an eternally virgin huntress who haunts wild places. She is sometimes referred to as Potnia Theron
(Mistress of the Beasts) indicating her concern for and power over wild animals. She is also concerned with women's transition
from girlhood to adulthood (via marriage) and with childbirth, a concern she shares with Hera and Eileithyia. Women who die are
said to be struck down by her arrows. Euripides' Hippolytus shows her in opposition to Aphrodite. Actaeon and Hippolytos are two young men who, in different ways,
are destroyed by their association with Artemis. Source: Arachne's
