Mondamin (Ceres)

Ojibwe /Chippewa corn (maize) god (Lake Superior area, Canada and USA).

Mondamin is an Anishinaabe or Miami maize deity. Some of his comparative fame was justified by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem The Song of Hiawatha, where Mondamin appears as maize personified. A crater on the dwarf world Ceres is named for the deity. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On Ceres they are named after gods and goddesses of agriculture and vegetation from world mythology.
