Hera was the queen of the Olympian deities. She is a daughter of Cronus and Rhea, and wife and sister of Zeus. Hera was mainly worshipped as a goddess of marriage and birth. It is said that each year Hera’s virginity returns by bathing in the well Canathus. The children of Hera and Zeus are the smith god Hephaestus, the goddess of youth Hebe, and the god of war Ares.
