Cybele was NOT a pre-Greek goddess. She was in fact LATER than Artemis.
Cybele lived between about 1550 and 1580 BC according to the Parian Marble
and according to The Travels of Noe into Europe, whereas Artemis was born in
about 1675 BC and therefore predates Kybele by at least 100 years.

By 'pre-Greek' I meant 'at Ephesus before the Greeks got there'. When
did Greek cultural influence become strong in Ephesus?
