    Athena
    [b]
    or
    Athene
    ,
    [c]
    often given the
    epithet
    Pallas
    ,
    [d]
    is an
    ancient Greek goddess
    associated with wisdom, handicraft, and warfare
    [3]
    who was later
    syncretized
    with the
    Roman goddess
    Minerva
    .
    [4]
    Athena was regarded as the patron and protectress of various cities across Greece, particularly the city of
    Athens
    , from which she most likely received her name.
    [5]
    She's usually shown in art wearing a helmet and holding a spear. Her major symbols include
    owls
    ,
    olive trees
    ,
    snakes
    , and the
    Gorgoneion
    .
    From her origin as an Aegean
    palace goddess
    , Athena was closely associated with the city. She was known as
    Polias
    and
    Poliouchos
    (both derived from
    polis
    , meaning "city-state"), and her temples were usually located atop the fortified
    acropolis
    in the central part of the city. The
    Parthenon
    on the
    Athenian Acropolis
    is dedicated to her, along with numerous other temples and monuments. As the patron of craft and weaving, Athena was known as
    Ergane
    . She's also a
    warrior goddess
    , and was believed to lead soldiers into battle as
    Athena Promachos
    . Her main festival in Athens was the
    Panathenaia
    , which was celebrated during the month of
    Hekatombaion
    in midsummer and was the most important festival on the Athenian calendar.
    In
    Greek mythology
    , Athena was believed to have been born from the head of her father
    Zeus
    . In the
    founding myth
    of Athens, Athena bested
    Poseidon
    in a competition over patronage of the city by creating the first olive tree. She's known as
    Athena Parthenos
    "Athena the Virgin," but in one archaic
    Attic
    myth, the god
    Hephaestus
    tried and failed to rape her, resulting in
    Gaia
    giving birth to
    Erichthonius
    , an important Athenian founding hero.
    Athena was the patron goddess of heroic endeavor; she's believed to have aided the heroes
    Perseus
    ,
    Heracles
    ,
    Bellerophon
    , and
    Jason
    . Along with
    Aphrodite
    and
    Hera
    , Athena was one of the three goddesses
    whose feud
    resulted in the beginning of the
    Trojan War
    . She plays an active role in the
    Iliad
    , in which she assists the
    Achaeans
    and, in the
    Odyssey
    , she is the divine counselor to
    Odysseus
    .
    In the later writings of the Roman poet
    Ovid
    , Athena was said to have competed against the mortal
    Arachne
    in a weaving competition, afterwards transforming Arachne into the first spider; Ovid also describes how she transformed
    Medusa
    into a
    Gorgon
    after witnessing her being raped by Poseidon in her temple. Since the
    Renaissance
    , Athena has become an international symbol of wisdom, the arts, and
    classical learning
    . Western artists and
    allegorists
    have often used Athena as a symbol of
    freedom
    and
    democracy
    .

    [1]
    Greek
    :
    Ποσειδῶν
    ,
    pronounced
    [poseːdɔ́ːn]
    ) was one of the
    Twelve Olympians
    in
    ancient Greek religion
    and
    myth
    , god of the sea, storms, earthquakes and horses.
    [2]
    In pre-Olympian
    Bronze Age Greece
    , he was venerated as a chief deity at
    Pylos
    and
    Thebes
    .
    [2]
    His Roman equivalent is
    Neptune
    .
    Poseidon was protector of seafarers, and of many Hellenic cities and colonies. In
    Homer
    's
    Iliad
    , Poseidon supports the Greeks against the Trojans during the
    Trojan War
    and in the
    Odyssey
    , during the sea-voyage from Troy back home to
    Ithaca
    , the Greek hero
    Odysseus
    provokes Poseidon's fury by blinding his son, the
    Cyclops
    Polyphemus
    , resulting in Poseidon punishing him with storms, the complete loss of his ship and companions, and a ten-year delay. Poseidon is also the subject of a
    Homeric hymn
    . In
    Plato
    's
    Timaeus
    and
    Critias
    , the island of
    Atlantis
    was Poseidon's domain.
