Greek In ancient Greece, the central
plateau of the Peloponnesus, surrounded by and
dissected by mountains. It was inhabited mostly by
shepherds and hunters who worshiped Pan and other
nature gods.
In the myth of Demeter, the corn goddess turns
herself into a mare and hides in a herd owned by
King Oncus of Arcadia. Nevertheless, the amorous
sea god Poseidon discovers her.
