Hestia was the Olympian goddess of hearth, home and family harmony. She was charged with guarding the "toys of the gods": artifacts like the Sword of Veracity which she kept in the Cave of Hestia (HTLJ "The Sword of Veracity"). Hestia's devout followers were virgin priestesses known as Hestian Virgins. The Xena look-alike, Leah, was a Hestian Virgin (XWP "Warrior... Priestess... Tramp"). In every village in ancient Greece, a portion of the family meal was set aside as an offering to Hestia and one hearth-fire was kept constantly burning, day and night, to promote family peace.

  • Hestia is the goddess of hearth and home of ancient Greek mythology. She is the eldest of the Olympian gods and one of the few Olympians never to indulge in petty or selfish behavior. Worship of Hestia was required in every single temple of ancient Greece for she was beloved by all her family and no god or goddess would acknowledge prayers or offerings at their temples unless praise was given to Hestia first. In addition to having a shrine in every major temple Hestia had a main temple in every town throughout Greece tended to by the Vestal Virgins, her devotees. Though hedonism was extremely common in ancient Greece they also valued virtue and purity and so Hestia was highly venerated.
  • Hestia, en la Mitologia Griega, es la Diosa del Hogar. Su equivalente Romana es Vesta. Hija de Cronos y Rea y hermana de Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter y Hades. Es junto con Atenea y Artemisa otra de las Diosas Virgenes. Además de ser una diosa virgen, fue cortejada por Apolo y por Poseidon para que se convirtiera en su esposa. Hestia representaba la seguridad del hogar y la calma familiar.Era, por lo tanto, la diosa que protegía el hogar, es decir, el fuego que ardía en el centro de todos los hogares. Además de en cada ciudad, Hestia era también adorada en el gran santuario de Delfos, significante para el pueblo griego el ombligo del mundo, en centro de su país y de todo el orbe conocido. Esta diosa escasas veces aparece en el arte. thumb|Hestia/Vesta

  • In Roman mythology, her more specifically civic approximate equivalent was Vesta, who personified the public hearth, and whose cult of the ever-burning hearth bound Romans together in the form of an extended family.

At some primitive level her name means "home and hearth", the oikos, the household and its inhabitants.
