Does anyone know the name of this statue?
This statue can be found in the garden area of the Hollywood Tower Hotel while waiting in the queue for “The Twilight Zone TOWER OF TERROR” in Disney Hollywood Studios theme park (Walt Disney World).
I do know that this is a reproduction of a classic statue, but I’m not sure of the original era and country (Greek?, Roman?, etc.) or the name of the figure depicted. It appears that the figure is possibly holding a stock of wheat, so it could be some sort of harvest god.
Please… can any ancient history or art/sculpture buffs help me out?
Here is a link to a picture of the statue:

It is the Roman goddess Ceres or the Greek goddess Demeter. A variation of the sculpture can be seen here: http://blog.beliefnet.com/astrologicalmusings/images/Ceres.jpg
