Leto’s sacred symbols were veil, dates, palm tree, rooster, wolf, griffin, and weasel

Leto was connected to many sacred symbols because she had encountered many things during her life. She developed attachments to practically everything she came across.


She and all the symbols connected to her started to be worshipped by the Greeks. For instance, roosters, wolves, and weasels were worshipped since they assisted Leto in navigating the dense forest while she was pregnant.


She would always cover herself with the veil, which was also revered. In all of her representations, including statues and paintings, Leto is shown as a nurturing mother figure. Nearly all of her representations include her wearing a veil and occasionally lifting it. The most typical representation of her shows her sitting on her lap with both of her kids. She is occasionally shown with her kids spread out on both sides. Apollo and Artemis, her children, are never shown without her. Additionally, it demonstrated her femininity, modesty, and maternal side.


She was also identified with the dates and palm trees because she had leaned on them during her difficult times. They also stood for success, peace, fertility, and racial unification.
