You must be referring to the incident when Zeus had such a horrible headache that his son, Hephaestus, ran to his father's aid, splitting his skull open with a mighty blow. From that wound sprang the fully grown and armored Athena.

What is the relationship between Athena and Zeus?

Athena is the daughter of Zeus in Greek mythology, but she was not born in the traditional sense.

Zeus is also Athena's patron god, and she is often associated with wisdom, warfare, and strategy.
