Also known as Ossa
In Greek mythology, Pheme ( ; Greek: , Phēmē), also known as Ossa ("Rumor") in Homeric literature, was the divine personification of fame, renown, and rumors. Her equivalent in Roman mythology, Fama, was likewise the personification of fame, and was depicted similarly in Roman literature and art. Both goddesses represented the two-sided nature of fame; those in their favor received notability and praise, while those subject to their wrath were haunted by scandal and rumors.
