    Cornucopia

    In classical antiquity, the cornucopia was a symbol of abundance and nourishment, commonly a large horn-shaped container overflowing with produce, flowers, or nuts. And there is a link between the myth and Thanksgiving Day. When Pilgrims arrived in America, they found plenty of corn, pumpkins, turkeys, and many other goods.

    Mythology offers multiple explanations of the origin of cornucopia. One of the best-known involves the birth and nurturance of the infant Zeus, who had to hide from his devouring father, Cronus. In a cave on Mount Ida on the island of Crete, baby Zeus was cared for and protected by some divine attendants, including the goat Amaltheia ("Nourishing Goddess"), who fed him with her milk. The future king of the gods had unusual abilities and strength, and in playing with his nursemaid, he accidentally; broke off one of her horns, which then had the divine power to provide unending nourishment, as the foster mother had to the god.
