In Roman mythology, the goddess of agriculture and harvest is Ceres. She embodies the nurturing aspects of the earth, overseeing the growth of crops and the fertility of the land. Ceres is often depicted with a cornucopia, symbolizing abundance, and is revered during the Cerealia festival. Her myths often emphasize the importance of sustainable farming practices and the relationship between nature and human prosperity. Additionally, she is linked to the myth of her daughter Proserpina, whose abduction by Hades symbolizes the cycle of seasons and the connection between life, death, and renewal.
