Most often her head is wreathed with ripe ears on their stalks, even when wearing a diadem as well. Sometimes she has stalks of grain springing from her bosom. While it is common to refer to the grain as wheat, it is probable that it is the related grain, barley, which has the simpler braided look of the ears seen on cameos. <b>Sometimes this is so stylized as to resemble feathers. </b>[emphasis mine]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>A sheaf is a good arm load of grain.&nbsp; The goddess is adorned with stalks of grain.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
