Large Cornucopia

Also known as the horn of plenty but where does it get it's 
name...  When Zeus was playing with the goat Amalthea 
(Amaltheia), he accidentally broke off one of her horns. To 
atone for this, Zeus promised Amalthea that the horn would 
always be full of whatever fruits she desired. This became the

plenty. Other goddesses, including Fortuna and Pax, also 
held the cornucopia.
