| 释义 |
In ancient Greek religion and myth, Eukarpia ("well-fruited" or "She of the rich harvest") was a divine personification of fertility, or an epithet or cult title for a deity. It is also found as a personal name for women (as Eukarpides for men).[1] In poetry, the name is an epithet of Aphrodite, Demeter, and Dionysus.[2] In Gonnoi, Thessaly, Eukarpia appears as a name for invoking Ge (Earth).[3] In a mosaic from the Tomb of Mnemosyne, Antioch, she is wearing earrings and an arm-baring tunic formed from tesserae of blue-green glass. On her head is a wreath of red and yellow fruit.[4] References1. ^Fritz Graf, "Gods in Greek Inscriptions: Some Methodological Questions," in The Gods of Ancient Greece: Identities and Transformations (Edinburgh University Press, 2010), p. 68. {{ancientGreece-stub}}2. ^Graf, "Gods in Greek Inscriptions," pp. 68. 3. ^Graf, "Gods in Greek Inscriptions," p. 68. 4. ^Sheila Campbell, The Mosaics of Antioch (Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, 1988), p. 77. 2 : Greek goddesses|Personifications |
