The Temple of Artemis, in modern day Turkey, was one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. However, Artemis of the temple, Artemis of Ephesus, is not the virgin huntress we usually associate with the name. At Ephesus, Artemis represents an older great mother goddess, more reminiscent of Cybele. She is associated with bulls and lions, like Inanna. Some sources identify her as a fertility goddess with many breasts, others say that the elliptical objects on her chest are bull testicles or eggs. Some images show her with dark skin. Painting her, her facial features definitely felt African to me. My depiction is based on a 1st century BCE statue owned by the Ephesus Archaeological Museum. The temple was torn down by a Christian mob in 401 CE and never rebuilt.
