Athena and Poseidon worked together in Greek mythology during the construction of the city of Troy. According to the myth, they both vied for the patronage of the city by offering gifts to its founder, King Priam. Athena provided the olive tree, while Poseidon offered the city its protective walls. Despite their collaboration, their rivalry continued as they both wanted to be the city's primary deity.
For one thing, they competed on who would be the patron god or goddess of Athens. Athena created a olive tree, and Poseidon created a saltwater spout. Athena won, and the competition obviously created some tension.In addition, Medusa was Poseidon's girlfriend, and they had arranged to "meet" in Athena's temple. This enraged Athena, and she turned Medusa into the snake- haired petrify-you-at-a-glance Medusa we commonly think of.
