"She's done more to be considered a villain than Hades has" That's actually an insanely low bar to clear. Hades never messed with people just for the hell of it, he was content to rule his domain.

@angelacooper8973 2 года назад

Hades just minded the business that paid him. Even when Hades ever got mad it’s cause people messed with him first. He was even okay with his wife having an affair Adonis.

This is just a slight addition to how Artemis was regarded in Spartan society. While you highlighted that she was regarded as Spartan goddess of warfare, she held equal importance as the goddess of childbirth. In Spartan society, a woman who died in childbirth (creating a new Spartan) was given the same honours and respect and funeral rites as a Spartan man who died in battle. I don't want to detract from your excellent summary here - I just thought it was an interesting point to make.

The only quality that makes her stand out from most of the gods is the fact that she wanted to remain pure and be independent from men. Unlike her other siblings like Aphrodite who started a war and her step-mother Hera who tried to make every women who Zeus slept with miserable with these horrible punishments and killing off the innocent children. Yes, Artemis is very protective over her purity to the point she would kill a man who sees her exposed, but she can be merciful. Like that myth about a little boy who saw Artemis bathe in a lake by mistake, she couldn't kill a child so she gave him the option to die as a boy or become an immortal girl who will join Artemis in her hunts.

What’s really amazing about this series is that one can see the commonalities across cultures’ deities. For instance, in the Yoruba pantheon, there’s a deity named Ochosi; he basically represents the same concept as Artemis. Hunter, deer are sacred to him, synonymous with magic, killed his mother by acting too hastily, etc. These commonalities make me think of Joseph Campbell’s “Hero of a Thousand Faces” hypothesis - either something happened globally and we interpreted the phenomenon based on our culture/location or we’re all the same so we create the same stories. Thanks for the series m8!

I think she knew exactly what she was doing in a profound intuitive wise distribution of karmic pay. Most would never comprehend as it's her deeply insightful ability to know past present and future. Steering the course for human race with her mighty power. Love your video subject! Soo cool. Thanks! Greatly appreciated.

Apollo - Spacecraft which took us to the moon. OrIon - Spacecraft for future moon landing. Artemis - Space program for returning to the moon and creating a livable habitat there. May these gods not get pissed at us.

I feel like every Olympian is more of a villain than Hades

@aryastark6558 2 года назад

I agree

@omniavanitas7893 2 года назад

Hades is not an Olympian in the slightest, so this is only natural. You could just as well say that the Olympians are more villainous (read: morally grey) than Hekate or Thanatos... yeah, they are, but they also appear in countless stories and have well-developed personalities unlike the underworld deities. Also, love how y'all like to pretend Hestia doesn't exist.

I'm personally a fan of the Myth involving Artemis and the transformation of two lovers into the Greek equivalent of vampires. Can't remember the name of the story though...

Artemis didn't get angry about the childbirth. She was pissed off at the fact Callisto lied to her.

In response to the wrap up, you did exceptionally well at portraying my goddess. My only critique would be that you forgot to mention her role in the myth of Atalanta. Thank you for covering my goddess so respectfully.

@nadynelozowski2861 2 года назад

Your channel recently showed up on my RU-vid as a recommendation. I must say I find your episodes regarding Greeks gods and goddesses very insightful. I currently got approved to have a book I have written to be published in the UK. It's not typical facts instead it's a fantasy novel but I base the origins heavily on Greek mythology. Although my first book is already in publishing I'm pleased to note that alot of my pervious content stems very closely to origins you have explained already so thank the heavens for that... Just wanted to say I'm finding your videos very insightful and I'm finding ways to incorporate these mythological facts into my next two installments of my trilogy so thank you. I will be following you from this day forward

I’ve loved Artemis since middle school and I still love her today. All the Greek gods/ goddess are cruel and unfair. So honestly at this point, hearing about how cutthroat and badass she was doesn’t make me love her any less 🥰

I don't mind claiming her a my goddess, though, in real life, my Goddess is Mother Kali. I like the badass goddess trope, though, virgin or not.

@angelacooper8973 2 года назад

I’m into Oya. She’s the Yoruba goddess of storms and rainbows. She was the wife of Shango and was his most chillaxed wife compared to Oshun and Oba who were always at each other’s throats. Oshun is cool too but I can take her in small doses.

@JayJayM57 2 года назад

Something interesting you could had added is before the battle of marathon the Greeks already having Athena favor but being outnumbered by several thousand chose to make a promise to Atermis they would sacrifice one goat for every Persian slayed. After the battle they killed so many, they chose to do 2 annually for a few decades.

@crimson5163 2 года назад

Not really relevant, but every time i use to take those quizzes online to see what Greek God/Goddess i was, i'd always get Artemis :]

@fairyzblood 2 года назад

She is my favorite goddess. And you honestly surprised me about the second tale every few who do a video on her forget about her asking her father for those gifts. But I thought it was a silver chariot sliver arrows an a silver quiver to hold those arrows? But still I am also happy you spoke about her an Orion that made my night

@auntiejenjen886 2 года назад

I remember reading in the 12 tasks that Artemis told hercules that he could capture the deer, on the condition he must not shed a single drop of blood. So hercules breaks the arrow tip off and shoots the deer at the ankles while it was running away. The arrow penetrates 2 legs at the same time stopping the deer in its tracks, and didn't make the deer bleed due to no tip.

@christianjohnson5379 2 года назад

Most versions of the myth of Callisto I've heard had Hera turning her into a she-bear, not Artemis.

@namedrop721 2 года назад

Same. This dude’s just…weirdly threatened by Artemis. I’d say it probably wasn’t much different long ago.

@airshipswashbuckler6420 2 года назад

I thought the same thing. There’s been a few in the comments who have been very triggered by her for some reason. Which I don’t get, despite her harsh measures she wasn’t a man hater at all. There was her best friend Orion, her brother Apollo, and all the dudes she hunted with and helped out. I don’t get the hate. 🤷‍♀️

@christianjohnson5379 2 года назад

@@namedrop721 I don't think he's threatened by Artemis, Jon simply made an incomplete analysis.

@omniavanitas7893 2 года назад

Oh? Have you really counted them? In the oldest surviving version of this story, the one who changed Kallisto into a bear was definitely Artemis. As for the much later accounts, there are other two in which Artemis did it, two in which Zeus was the one who changed the girl and two or three in which Hera was responsible for the transformation. So, there is an equal number of versions where Artemis and Hera changed Kallisto into a bear, with the added bonus that the account of Artemis is older by more than half a millennium and the account of Hera doing it appears mostly in Roman sources. Besides, even in the versions in which Kallisto is metamorphosed by either Hera or Zeus, Artemis is still almost always the one who kills her.

Thank You so much for this episode Jon! Artemis is my favorite goddess in Greek Mythology. Oke she is cruel but I think that most of her punishments are well deserved( not the one of Callisto) . I hope you also will cover The Messed Up Origins of Apollo her twin brother soon. Even I know al lot( really a lot) of those story's about the Greek Mythology( Because it's my favorite kind of Mythology) I enjoy watching you video's about it( yes the other one's to;)) May I Make one little request? I really would like to see a episode of Scylla en Charybdis. But anyways I love your shows an again thank you so much for this one!

It comes up in Book 3 - Jon Spiro the villain mocks Artemis for having a "girl name" later on Artemis hands it back to him in a sick burn... 😀 so Eion Colfer obviously knows about Artemis the god
