Strategies
This Wonder requires the Wonders of the Ancient World DLC if you do not have it in game. You may find this in a bundle on Steam, or buy Civilization 5 Complete Edition. The ranged unit production helps throughout the game, as well as the growth and you may want it for either. For Warmongers, there are better Wonders to seek for this purpose, like the Statue of Zeus, although both will certainly help a B.C. Warmonger. The production of ranged units is really an aside, as the growth bonus is huge.
The best thing about Temple of Artemis is that it actually gives the City +10% Food over the base amount it produces. To say it increases "growth" is a bit misleading - it's a lot better than that. ToA stacks with Tradition so effectively makes tiles that give 3 food give 3.3, so thus increasing growth rate quite a lot more than stated. All you need is the Happiness to support all those Citizens, and nice fertile lands for Farms.
This Wonder will definitely help a wide empire populate their Cities with garrisoned Archers/Crossbowmen/Bazookas and simultaneously aid in growth through the entire game. The Great Engineer point may lead you to rushing a Wonder as you approach the Medieval era, which is invaluable. This Wonder is one of few that the AI doesn't rush for, and although that differs from game to game, it's usually buildable up to Deity Difficulty, where it will help you catch up to the AI in growth.
