Athena (Minerva)

Her father Zeus swallowed her mother before she was born after hearing a prophecy that one of his children would overcome him and years later he felt a pain in his head and had Hephaestus chop his head open to see what was wrong and out popped Athena in full battle armour already grown.

She now lives in Mount Olympus

41 feet, 10 inches tall

Herakles was sent to destroy the Hydra as one of his twelve labours, but for each of her heads that he decapitated, two more sprang forth. So with the help of Iolaos, he applied burning brands to the severed stumps, cauterizing the wounds and preventing regeneration. In the battle he also crushed a giant crab beneath his heel which had come to assist Hydra. The Hydra and the Crab were afterwards placed amongst the stars by Hera as the Constellations Hydra and Cancer.

Gaea and Uranus, Mother Earth and Father Sky.

No. She is the Greek goddess of wisdom and gave advice to whoever sought it.

Actually, this is a very long story, so I will shorten it up for you. :)

Poseidon and Athena wanted to be patrons for the city of Athens. The king at that time decided that the god that would bring the best gift to the city would win. Poseidon made a salt-water spring. Athena made an olive tree, which was really useful, for olive oil and food.

Athena won and she is now represented by the owl and the olive branch. The olive branch stands for peace. I really hope this helped. :)

Minerva

Sparta?

Athena is supposed to be very intelligent. She is the goddess of Wisdom. And...she beat Ares in a war, so she must be strong... hope this helps :)

where does athena spend most of her time during the myth

The Greek god Athena was believed by the Roman's to have sprung out of Zeus's skull at Mount Olympus.

Athena came out of her father's(Zeus) mouth.

Medusa cause she had an affair with Poseidon.

As a mythological being she seems to have no clear date of birth.

Athena was born a goddess, in ancient Greek Myth.

in Greek mythology, Athena was born in a very special way. one day, Zeus had a head ache and asked his son Hephaestus to crack his head open to releive the pressure. when hephestus hit Zues' head, Athena popped out. therefore, Athena became the goddess of wisdom and strategy cuz she was born from Zeus' thoughts

Zeus' her father swallowed her

Odysseus would have been ambushed had he arrived in Ithica without a disguise.

Also a large part of Homeric Greece was reputation, and making sure that everyone knew of your great deeds. Because Odysseus was able to survive these hardships and brave feats, when he did eventually return, everyone would learn of his bravery and heroic adventures. Basically, they loved to show off, and in their society, there was no point in doing anything if no one else knew about it.

I know 1 event. She and Poseidon had a war because they both wanted to be ruler of Athens. The people chose Athena, so Poseidon was mad. They battled, but Athena won.

yes she was because that was her job as a goddess of wr she fought and PROTECTED the city-state she wanted to win by making bad things happen to other city-states

No Athena was a virgin goddess
