History
Adonis was the Greek god of beauty and desire. Nevertheless his origins are Semitic and is maybe based off the deity Tammuz. His myth says that Aphrodite sheltered the baby Adonis and entrusted him to Persephone. Persephone falling in love also with him refused to give him back and the two goddesses started a dispute, only ceased by Zeus, and decided that the baby would be with each goddess one third of a year and the third one with the one he chose. A boar would eventually kill him and Aphrodite would sprinkle his blood with nectar from which the anemone flower bloomed.
