The Reason She Desided To Remain A Virgin
Version 1: She thought her place was with the hearth
Version 2: ( quote from " Women in Greek Myths ) "Once, Apollo and Poseidon came forward as rivals looking
for her hand. Now, that had the potential to turn into something pretty ugly, and Hestia knew it. So she turned to Zeus and
said that she would remain a virgin forever. Zeus understood her actions and was very grateful, so greatful that he awarded
her the first victim of every public sacrifice for keeping the peace on Olympus."

the center of Olimpus.
