Yup.
The city state of Sparta did indeed believe in the goddess Athena. The Spartans built for Athena the temple Chalkioikos.
Athena is nice and mean. She helped many people that she favored but turned a girl she hated into a spider. I DON'T AS IN DO NOT believe in Athena. Its just fun to read mythology. ole!!*wink*
It's still Athena.
Athena was and still is honored today.
Believe it or not, the Temple of Athena was made as a place of worship and tribute to the Greek Goddess Athena.
Absolutely. There's still people who believe everything.
Athena has no daughters, or children for that matter. And do not believe Percy Jackson!
It depends on your concept of deities.If a deity requires believers to exist and there are or are not Athena believers alive her existence would depend on that status. A story in the May 08 2004 issue of "The Telegraph" (a British newspaper) indicates that Athena worshipers do exist. This implies she still is around.Some religions such as Christianity believe in a deity that exists with or without a cadre of believers. Since one deity is essentially as believable as any other Athena would exist.If atheists are correct and no gods exist anywhere she would not exist.
Athena cared about everyone.She didn't associate with rowdy people like Ares.She had a rivalry with Poseidon,and she still did,along with Hera and Aphrodite.
Athena is the goddess who protects and assists Odysseus in Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey." She guides and supports him throughout his journey, often intervening on his behalf with the other gods. Athena's favor is a key factor in Odysseus's eventual success in returning home to Ithaca.
I believe it's because Athena pities and likes Odysseus.
Athena helped people because she was pure
