Vesta, the asteroid, was discovered in 1807, and it was them the fourth discovered asteroid after Ceres, which was the first one, discovered in 1801.

Vesta has two giant craters on its surface, and they were believed to have formed as a result of mass collisions from billions of years ago.

The pieces of the debris from these collisions were even found on the surface of Earth in the form of meteorites.

The name of this asteroid came from the name of the Roman goddess of fertility, home, and family. Vesta was also considered a protector of the Roman people. She was rarely depicted in human form.

The most common depictions of this goddess were in the form of sacred fire which burned unstoppably in her temple in the Roman forum.

The fire was considered a protector of the Romans and had to burn nonstop because the Romans believed it was a very bad omen if the fire was put out.

The role of the fire keepers was given to Vesta’s priestesses, the Vestal virgins. The Vestals were chosen by the Pontifex Maximus, the chief priest of Rome, from girls who were only six to ten years old at the time.

They had to give their consent to remain virgins in the next 30 years. If they failed to perform any of their duties, the Vestals were severely punished, by beating, and in some cases, the penalty was death.

The Vestals performed sacred rituals to enhance the agricultural harvest and fertility of women. Their role was one of honor, but it was still a great sacrifice.

Vesta was a well-respected deity, and she even had a holiday dedicated to her, called Vestalia.
