Carme (mythology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Carme (mythology) Carme, the Latinized form of Greek Karmê (Κάρμη "shearer"), was a female Cretan spirit who assisted the grain harvest of Demeter's Cretan predecessor. According to stories of the Olympian gods, she was the mother, by Zeus, of the virginal huntress Britomartis, also called Diktynna,〔Pausanias 2.30.2; nevertheless, Greeks like Herodotus were well aware that a hunt goddess, such as Britomartis, must have preceded a harvest goddess.〕 whom she bore at Kaino.〔Diodorus Siculus, ''Library of History'' 5.76.3. Kaino is the modern Chania on the coast of northwestern Crete.〕 Carme was the daughter of either Phoenix and Cassiopeia,〔Following Antoninus Liberalis, ''Metamorphoses'', 40; this genealogy places her in the coastal plain that became Phoenicia, and makes her the sister of Europa〕 or of the divine ploughman Euboulos, son of Karmanor. The duplicates and parallel genealogies are symptoms of the uneasy fit between Minoan cult, to which Carme belonged, and the Mycenaean cult that superseded it. ==Notes==
