The Myths
Apollo's twin, born first and midwife to her own brother. Artemis roams the wild with her Hunters, turned Actaeon to a stag for spying, and placed Orion among the stars.
Symbols & Domains
The silver bow, the crescent moon, and the deer. Artemis rules the hunt, the wilderness, and the moon — and the fierce independence of those who need no city.
Her Cabin
Artemis swore off children forever, so Cabin 8 stands empty and silver — kept ready to host her immortal Hunters whenever they pass through camp.
Questions about Cabin 8
What number is the Artemis cabin at Camp Half-Blood?
Artemis keeps Cabin 8. Cabins one to twelve belong to the Olympians in council order, and thirteen to twenty to the minor gods, so Artemis sits among the Olympians.
What is Artemis the god of?
Goddess of the hunt and the moon.
Does Artemis have demigod children?
No. Artemis claims no demigod children, so Cabin 8 never takes a camper — it stands as quarters kept ready for her Hunters. Eighteen of the twenty cabins claim children; this is one of the two that do not.
