Why was Athena's symbol an olive tree?

Her symbol was an olive tree because that is what she gave to the Greek's in order for Athens to be named after her. Athena and Poseidon were fighting over who got to name the city and a more powerful god told them that whoever gave the people the best gift would get to name it. Poseidon gave the people a stream but it was salty and the people didn't like it. Athena gave them an olive tree and it supplied them with olives, olive oil, and wood that burned for a long time. So the more powerful god let her name the city and that is why her symbol is an olive tree.
