Diana

Diana

Diana is a Roman goddess very closely associated with the Greek goddess Artemis. The main difference being that Diana was not chase for she had several lovers such as Hippolytus, Endymion, Virbius, and Dianus and according to some accounts even her brother Apollo. She was a virgin in the ancient sense in that she never married nor had she given birth. She was a goddess of the moon, and then later all the Greek myths relating to Artemis were added.
