Best Answer

Minerva is the Roman goddess of strategy in war, and also the goddess of wisdom. Her Greek counterpart is Athena. Her sacred bird is the owl. Jupiter (Greek, Zeus) had a headache and a pain in his thigh, and when another god cut his thigh open, Minerva sprang out of it, full-grown and in armor.
