Demeter Pio-Clementino Inv254.jpg
In
Greek mythology
,
Demeter
was the goddess of the harvest, who presided over
grains
, the
fertility
of the earth, the
seasons
(personified by the
Hours
), and the
harvest
. One of her surnames is Sito (σίτος:
wheat) as the giver of food or corn. Though Demeter is often described simply as
the goddess of the harvest, she presided also over the sanctity of
marriage
, the
sacred law
, and the cycle of
life and death
. She and her daughter
Persephone
were the central figures of the
Eleusinian Mysteries
that also predated the
Olympian pantheon.

Her
Roman
cognate is
Ceres
.


Debelt is a village in
Sredets municipality
in
Burgas Province
in southeastern
Bulgaria
, about 25 kilometers from
Burgas
. It has a population of 1,574 and an
altitude of 46 meters. The village was founded around the 2nd century by the
Roman emperor Vespasian
. Then called Deultum, it was the only
Roman colony on Bulgarian land in the
Flavian dynasty
. During the Byzantine era it
was known as Develtos (Greek:
Δεβελτός).


Marcus

Julius Philippus Severus, also known as Philippus II, Philip II

and Philip the Younger (238 – 249) was the son and heir of the

Roman

Emperor

Philip the Arab

by his wife Roman Empress

Marcia Otacilia Severa

. According to numismatic evidence, he had a sister

called Julia Severa or Severina, whom the ancient Roman sources do not mention.

When his father became emperor in 244 he was appointed

Caesar

. Philippus was

consul
in 247

and 248. His father was killed in battle by his successor

Decius
in 249.

When news of this death reached Rome, he was murdered by the

Praetorian Guard

. He died in his mother’s arms. When he died, he was eleven

years old.
