Ancient Greece - Peloponnesian War

The Temple of Demeter Thesmophoros stands as a sacred space dedicated to the goddess of the harvest, Demeter, and her daughter Persephone. It serves as a vital center for agricultural worship and is the heart of the Thesmophoria, a revered women-only festival honoring Demeter, which highlights the significance of agriculture to Megara’s economy. Visitors were often seen bringing offerings of grain and flowers, seeking blessings for bountiful harvests.
