Maia (Roman goddess)

Maia (Roman goddess)

In ancient Roman mythology and religion, Maia, or Maiae, was an earth goddess, a consort and paredrae of Vulcan, and the mother of Mercury. While Maia was originally an ancient Italic goddess, she was conflated with the Greek goddess Maia after the Hellenization of Latin culture, and absorbed much of her mythology.
