In Greece, Ares was the God of War and Athena was the Patron of Warfare and Strategy. Ares was not widely worshiped in Greece outside of Sparta. You could say that Ares was the patron of soldiers while Athena the patron of generals.
In Rome, Mars was widely worshiped as he was one of the Patrons of the city (since legend states that the twins Romulus and Remus were sons of the deity).
Well, in Greece there is no war goddess -- there is a war god, Ares. In Rome, he is know as Mars. (and the planets were named after the gods not the other way around.) Though there is a goddess of war in Egyptian mythology. Her name is Sekhmet, usually found as a cat/human, or otherwise just a cat. When I say cat/human I mean the head of a cat and the body of a human, or to be specific, a woman. Then there is also Siva or Shiva, also a war deity. Although he is not a goddess, but a god, an Indian one (not native american, the original Indians, from India.) Anyway, it all depends on which mythology, religion, culture, or philosophy in which you are referring to. Since this is the Greek and Roman Mythologies category, I would believe that it would be the Greek and Roman myths but there is no goddess of war in both mythologies, so I would have to assume you have some of your information incorrect. So I have given you some other gods and goddesses of war in case you did not mean the Greeks or the Romans.
In Greek mythology, the god of war is named Ares and is known for being stubborn and violent. Ares Roman name is Mars
