Note: In Greek mythology Persephone is also called Kore. She is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, and known as the queen of the underworld, she was sold to Hades by Zeus and abducted to the underworld to marry Hades. When her mother, Demeter found out, she made a deal with Zeus to let her stay in the underworld for one third of the year and two-thirds on Earth. This produces the seasons, and Kore is also known as the vegetation goddess.
