It's an interesting story. Athena visited Hephaestus once to ask for some weapons, but he thought that she had come to seduce him, and he attempted to rape her. Athena managed to escape, and Hephaestus ended up fertilizing the earth. Later, Erichthonius was born, and Athena hid the baby in a box and gave it to the three daughters of Cecrops.
According to Hyginus' Fabulae, sons of Vulcan are Philammon, Cecrops, Erichthonius, Corynetes, Cercyon, Philottus and Spinther
Yes, she decided to remain chaste. She did, however, accompany many men on their journeys, and made quite an effort with Odysseus. She also had a son, sort of. His name was Erichthonius, and was created when Hephaestus sort of, almost raped her, and spilled his seed on her leg/on the ground. In some cases, when it's on her leg, she wipes it off and throws it to the ground, and leaves in disgust. So, really, Erichthonius was of Hephaestus and Gaia, but Athena fostered him.

the answer is the cacus mountains
In Greek myth, her adopted son was Erichthonius (also written Erichthonios).
Philammon. Cecrops. Erichthonius. Corynetes. Cercyon. Philottus. Spinther.
Cacus was a fire-breathing giant who lived in a cave on the Aventine Hill of Latium, the site that would eventually become Rome. He was an amazing shepherd who stole some of the cattle of Heracles, as the hero was returning to Greece after his 10th labour. Cacus' father was Hephaistos, who, ummm, got around quite a bit, so he had many siblings, both divine and mortal.
The Greek Goddess? She had no daughters. Only one "foster son" named Erichthonius.
Athena only had one adopted son, Erichthonius (also written Erichthonios).
