Why is goddess Athena so important to the people of Athens?

Athens became the official Greek capital in 1834 after the Greeks freed themselves from Turkish rule. But the greatest fame of this city dates from the 400's BC, when it was the world's most powerful and most highly civilized city. The city's name in Greek is Athinai. The city was named such for Athena the greek goddess of warfare and wisdom in Greek mythology. At birth, according to myth, she sprang, full-grown and dressed in armor, from the forehead of Zeus, the king of the gods. Some myths tell how Athens got its name. The Greeks in the territory of Attica wanted to name their principal city for either Poseidon, the sea god, or Athena, whoever gave the more useful gift. One myth says that Poseidon created the horse. Another says he created the spring. Athena created the olive tree. The gods judged Athena's gift more useful, and so the city was named Athens, with Athena it's patroness. Athena represented the intellectual aspect of war. The Greeks worshipped her as the patroness of arts and crafts. Athena was also particularly skilled at weaving. She is usually represented wearing a helmet and a magic shield called the aegis. Athena's chief symbol was the owl.
