Quote: Etymology Ancient Greek writers linked Artemis (Doric Artamis) by way of folk etymology to artemes (‘safe’[5] or artamos [7] However, the name Artemis (variants Arktemis, Arktemisa) is most likely related to Greek árktos ‘bear’ (from PIE *h₂ŕ̥tḱos), supported by the bear cult that the goddess had in Attica (Brauronia) and the Neolithic remains at the Arkouditessa, s well as the story about Callisto, which, perhaps, originally was about Artemis (epithet Calliste).[8] This cult was a survival of very old totemic and shamanistic rituals and formed part of a larger bear cult found further afield in other Indo-European cultures. While connection with Anatolian names has been suggested [9][10] the earliest attested forms of the name Artemis is the Mycenaean Greek a-te-mi-to and a-ti-mi-te, written in Linear B at Pylos.[11] Artemis was venerated in Lydia as Artimus.[12]
