From Wikipedia

Britomartis (; Ancient Greek: Βριτόμαρτις) was a Greek goddess of mountains, nets, and hunting who was primarily worshipped on the island of Crete. She was sometimes described as a nymph, but she was more commonly conflated or syncretized with the goddesses Artemis, Athena, and Aphaea. She was also known as Dictynna, Dicte, Dictymna, or as a daughter of Dictynna (Δίκτυννα). In the 16th century, Edmund Spenser named a character identified with English military prowess as "Britomart" in his knightly epic The Faerie Queene. This subsequently led to a number of appearances of "Britomart" figures in British art and literature.
