artsfantasia: Atargatis by Gonzalo Ordóñez Arias Atargatis, in Aramaic ‘Atar‘atah, was a Syrian deity, “the great mistress of the North Syrian lands” Rostovtseff called her, commonly known to the Greeks by a shortened form of the name, Derceto or Derketo and as Dea Syria, “Goddess of Syria”, rendered in one word Deasura. She is often now popularly described as the mermaid-goddess, from her fish-bodied appearance at Ascalon and in Diodorus Siculus, and also, as the first mermaid.
