Athena with Owl - Greek Goddess of Wisdom and War
Pallas Athene is the Greek goddess of wisdom, science and the fine arts. She was patroness of the city of Athens. According to Greek mythology, Athena was born from the head of the god Zeus, fully grown and with full armour. Zeus gave her the skin of the goat Amalthea. As a goddess of war, Athena represented wisdom.
In the war against the Giants, Athena played a major role and performed many heroic deeds. Athena also played a major role in the Trojan War; she came to the aid of many heroes, such as Achilles and Odysseus. She also protected her favourite hero Heracles during his difficult tasks.
