Question

Two answers required. It’s not Zeus or Dionysus, but worshippers would make sacrifices to one of these deities while singing men kindled torches on the other’s altar on the second day of the Apaturia festival. One of these deities frees their mother on a relief from a Spartan temple dedicated to the other’s Chalkiokos (“HAL-kee-OH-kos”), or “Bronze House,” aspect. Girl acolytes known as arrephoroi (“ah-REF-oh-ROI”) aided the ergastinai (“ehr-GAS-tee-NYE”) in weaving a sacred peplos during a festival (-5[1])sacred to both of these deities called the Chalkeia (“HAL-kay-ah”). Hyginus records how Neptune urged one of these deities to ask Zeus for the other’s (*) hand in marriage, only for the latter to “defend her virginity with arms.” Two daughters of Cecrops go insane (10[1])after unveiling Erichthonius, (-5[1])who was (10[1])born (10[1])during the attempted rape (10[1])of one (-5[1])of these (10[1])deities by the other. For 10 points, (10[1])name these two deities, one of whom is a blacksmith god who cut open Zeus’s head to allow for the other’s birth. (10[1])■END■ (10[3])
