Demeter

Demeter is the godess of agriculture and one of the twelve major Olympian gods.

With her daughter Persephone, she is also goddess of the afterlife. Men could reach the Elysium fields after death, through the practice of her Mysteries. She is the goddess of Agriculture, Horticulture, Food (in particular the staples of bread and wheat), Law and Order, and the Path to a Happy Afterlife.

She was usually worshipped in conjunction with her daughter Persephone.
