On this day, the Greeks celebrated the Mounichia in honor of Artemis Mounichia. It was also used to commemorate the Battle of Salamis. There were sacrifices and a procession during which cakes topped with small candles were offered to the goddess. The young girls were disguised as bears as during the Artemis festivals taking place at the sanctuary of Brauron. #mythology #myth #legend #calendar #April 18 #GreeceAncient #Artemis #Mounichia
