Euthenia

Euthenia (/juːˈθiːniə/;[1] Greek: Ευσθένεια, Eustheneia) was the feminine personification of prosperity, abundance, and gain. The Goddess contrasting her is Penia ("Poverty").[2] Their sisters were Eucleia, Eupheme, and Philophrosyne. Along with her sisters, she was a member of the younger Charites.[3] According to the Orphic fragments, her parents were Hephaestus and Aglaia.[4]

Euthenia depicted in a garden.

Cultural Significance

As a symbol of prosperity and wealth she has been depicted across culture, often on coins and venerated through ritualistic practices.

Rome

On Roman coins, Euthenia is often compared to Abundantia, the personification of abundance and prosperity, and Annona, the personification of the grain supply to Rome.[5]

Egypt

She is also a part of the Egyptian pantheon, though was later assimilated to tales related to Goddess Isis. During Ptolemaic times, she became the consort of Nilus.[6] Her first appearance on Egyptian coins date back to the last decade of BC.[7]
