Hecate is the Greek Goddess of witchcraft and the moon. To the Romans, she was Trivia, Goddess of Three Roads. She is the guardian of the crossroads. Where the paths met, there was a figure much like the one above. She was said to posses this figure at times. Her worshippers left offerings for her at the shrine. She is also reported to be the goddess of the underworld, earth, and sky. Due to this and the fact that there were three paths meeting at the crossroads, she is usually represented by threes. There is some controversy over her family tree. A few legends say she was the daughter of Zeus and Hera. Others say she was the child of titans Perses and Asteria. Hecate is often linked with the legends of Demeter and Persephone.
