The Greek goddess Athena played a very important part in the founding of Athens. Athena and her uncle Poseiden both wanted to become patriot god of a thriving city, so they held a competition. Poseiden struck his mighty trident against the earth to make a spring, but the citizens were unable to drink from it because it was saltwater. They deemed Poseiden's gift useless and chose Athena's gift instead, an olive tree that could provide olives for them to eat. The city was founded by Athena and was named Athens in her honour.
