Zeus and Metis were going to have a daughter or son. He found out that if he had a son, his son would overthrow him like Zeus did to Kronos. Zeus tricked Metis into turning in to a fly by saying that she was too powerful to do so. He then ate Metis. Later, he had a pain in his head and told his cupbearer to take an ax and split Zeus's head. Athena sprang out of him in full battle armor.

Technically, Athena's parents were Zeus (the king of the gods) and Metis (Titaness of wisdom and knowledge). It was prophesized that Metis's offspring would be more powerful than Zeus, so he swallowed Metis. However, since Metis was already pregnant with Athena, this did little good. Metis gave birth to Athena inside of Zeus, and Athena stayed there until Zeus, complaining of headaches, had his head split open by Hephaestus. Out sprung Athena, fully armed.
