Ecdysia (from Greek "to undress") was a ritual involved sacred ceremonies and celebrations at Phaistos, Crete which were held in honor of Leto Phytia, mother of Apollo and Artemis. * The legend is about the story of Galatea, daughter of Evritios and wife of Lambros. Because her husband had warned her that if she gave birth to a daughter he would kill her, Galatea, wanting to save her, was forced to conceal the childs gender and raise her as a boy, naming her Leucippus. When the young girl grew up and it was now impossible to hide her gender, Galatea desperately resorted as a supplicant to the sacred temple of Leto and asked her to transform her daughter to a son, in order to stay alive. The goddess felt sorry for her and accepted her prayers. Thus, the young girl abdicated her maiden veil and by Letos divine intervention was transformed into a man. Thus, the feast Ekdysia was named after this incident. |
