The Roman goddesses Minerva and Diana were playmates, along with Proserpine, as young goddesses. They all agreed to be virgin goddesses, except Pluto abducted Proserpine. This similarity between Diana and Minerva may have led to a friendship between them. However, Minerva likes to think things through before acting, as the goddess of wisdom, but Diana likes to jump straight into things, as the goddess of the wild and the hunt. This might have led to the annoyance of the other. Also, there is a debate whether Minerva or Diana was the favorite daughter of Jupiter (most say that it was Minerva), and which one of them was the stronger.
