Best Answer

Athene is the goddess of wisdom and war strategy. She was very clever. She is the daughter of Zues. Legend has it, before Athene was born, Zeus set persuit on a beautiful goddess named Mitus. When he finally caught her they both turned into beautiful rings and "hooked up." However, later an oracle, which is like a profecy, said that if he loved Mitus again, she would give birth to a son who would overpower him. So the next time Zues saw Mitus, she was obviously trying to court him, but Zues feared for his reputation. So he swallowed Mitus whole. Many years later he recieved a severe headache. He had his skull cracked open to find the source of the headache and it was Athene who had been birthed inside of Zues and was poking his brain with a spear. That is the story of Athene.
