Historical Background

In Greek mythology, Amaltheia was a divine goat that provided milk and honey for an infant Zeus (god of weather, ruler of the Olympian gods) on Mount Aigaion on the island of Crete. Amaltheia's horn was broken off and it became Cornucopia ("horn of plenty"), which would always be filled with food no matter how much was taken from it. Amaltheia is occasionally interpreted as a nymph accompanied by a goat. By some accounts, this goat's hide coats the legendary shield Aegis, giving it its powerful properties.

Amalthea is also the name of a moon of Jupiter. It was discovered on September 9th, 1892 by Barnard. It has a 172km diameter. The moon is also among the reddest objects in the Sol solar system, being redder than Mars.
