The Greek goddess of the home and the hearth, Hestia, or Vesta in Roman. She used to have one of the twelve Olympian seats, but when Zeus thought his son to a mortal woman, Dionysus, should be an Olympian for inventing wine, Hestia gave her seat to him to keep the peace.
Hestia is one of the three virgin goddesses (along with Artemis and Athena). Her parents were Chronos and Rhea, meaning that Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, etc were all her siblings. It’s not my style to be replaced by a nephew, but whatever floats your boat I guess.
