The Balustrade of Athena Polias Nikephoros in Pergamon
#55
http://efts.lib.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/eo ... object=328

Though Demeter (Cerres) is the most well known agricultural goddess -in Sparta Kore(Persephone) or Artemis Orthia were revered as goddeses combining the attributes of Gaia the plant-grower. The stele testifies to land rights and the sicle is simply the symbol of the "farming godess".

Kind regards
