Ameretat
|
She is the Immortal one of the Amesha Spenta She was the sixth created and is opposed by Aesma Daeva and Asto Vidasu (Death Demon). The fourth month is hers, but by the vagaries of human bureaucracy it is named after Death (Mordad in modern Persian) instead of Immortality (Amordad). Ameretat supported all plant life in the material world.
(She is identified by the Greeks as Demeter and in Armenia is known as Spendaramet.)
