Athena is an ancient Greek goddess and one of the Olympian deities in classical Greek and Roman religion. She is also known as Athena Parthenos (Athena the Virgin), Pallas Athena and by her roman name, Minerva. According to the Greek Mythology Athena was born from the forehead of her father Zeus. She was associated with wisdom, handicraft and warfare. Athena was regarded as the patron and protectress of various cities across Greece, particularly the city of Athens, from which she most likely received her name. She is usually portrayed in art wearing a helmet and holding a spear. The owls, the olive trees, the snakes and the Gorgoneion are Athena’s most prominent symbols.
​The Parthenon on the Athenian Acropolis is dedicated to her, along with numerous other temples and monuments.

In Greek mythology, a little owl (Athene noctua) traditionally represents or accompanies Athena. Because of such association, the bird – often referred to as the owl of Athena or the owl of Minerva – has been used as a symbol of knowledge, wisdom, perspicacity and erudition throughout the Western world.
