Athena and Poseidon both wanted to rule this one town so to settle it they both had to give gifts to the town and the best gift wins the control of the town. Poseidon went first and he gave them a spring at first it was great but then the people tasted it and it tasted like saltwater from the ocean. Athena went next and gave the people an olive tree and it gave the people food, oil, and wood. So they picked Athena to rule and now the town is called Athens.
