The Legend of The Great Bear The Traditional Classical World Religion and Traditional Roman Religion, Jupiter (Zeus) commits adultery with Callisto who is a nymph of Diana(Artemis) the patroness of hunters, crossroads, the countryside and The Moon. Juno(Hera) places a curse on the bastard child begotten from this affair. This curse turn him into a Bear. Jupiter eventually puts Arcas, The bastard child ' the bear' into the sky; creating Ursa Major. Jewish Traditions Ursa Major was thought to be the bear of The Jewish People. Northern Europeans saw Ursa Major as Otava which mean Salmon weir. The Ancients of The Finns believed that the bear lowered a golden basket then it was killed and the head laid on a tree. Eventually the spirit of the bear would return to Ursa Major.
