Persephone is the esoteric name of the Greek mythological daughter of Zeus by Demeter, the queen of the harvest.

In Greek myth, Circe, daughter of Helios, the sun, was a sorceress living on the island of Aeaea, who could turn men into animals with her magic wand, which is just what she did to Odysseus's crew in Homer's Odyssey, transforming them into swine.
