Athena is the goddess that was truly Zeus and Metis' child but ther was a prophecy that Metis would bear a child more powerful than the father. To solve the problem, Zeus swallowed the pregnant Metis and Athena was born within Zeus. Soon Zeus was in great pain and Hephaestus--the god or goddess varies depending on story--took a double-bladed ax and cut open Zeus's head. There Athena came out, clothed in armor and fully-grown. Most do not think of Athena as Metis's child but just Zeus's because she had come from his head. Athena was the daughter of Zeus. She came out of his head, and so it is believed that her mother was Metis, who Zeus had changed into a fly and swallowed. Zeus had 2 brothers and three sisters, they were consequently Athena's uncles and aunts.
