Question

This is the younger of two deities that are the central focus of the Ninnion tablet. This goddess was conflated with the Arcadian goddess known solely as “the Mistress,” (10[1])or (10[1])Despoina, (10[7])making (10[2])her the sister (-5[1])of Arion. (10[2]-5[2])For being (10[1])the mistress (10[1])of her husband, (10[1])this goddess turned the nymph Minthe (10[3])into the mint plant. (10[10])The (10[1])Orphic (-5[1])god (10[1])Zagreus (10[2])was a son (10[1])of Zeus and this (10[3])goddess. (10[2]-5[1])As (10[2])punishment (10[1])for betraying this (-5[1])goddess, Ascalaphus was buried under a rock (10[1]-5[1])and (10[1])turned into an eagle owl. This goddess, (10[1])who (10[1])in one Homeric Hymn was picking flowers when the earth (10[3])“opened up (10[3])under (10[2])her,” (10[3]-5[1])was the (10[1])younger worshiped (10[1])at (10[1])the Eleusinian (10[1])Mysteries. This goddess was trapped (10[2])in one location after getting tricked into eating pomegranate seeds. (-5[1])For 10 points, name this Greek queen of the underworld. (10[1])■END■ (10[3])
