They were celebrated every autumn at Eleusis in honour of the Two Goddesses, Demeter and her daughter Persephone (known within the mysteries as Kore, the maiden). At Eleusis, the mysteries were celebrated for over a thousand years, and for most of that time men and women, including kings and emperors, came from all over the Mediterranean world to witness the sacred rites and be initiated in their secrets.http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/exhibition/4318491http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/showcase/4318497http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/showcase/4318498http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/exhibitionpart/html/4318492http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/exhibitionpart/xml/4318492http://kulturarvsdata.se/SMVK-MM/exhibitionpart/rdf/4318492
