Bust of Goddess Athena on a marble base. This handmade version constitutes a great gift reminding us the city of Athens. Athena was the Goddess of wisdom, strategy and war. Her symbols were the owl and the olive tree. She was the beloved daughter of Zeus and the protector of the city of Athens.
The Greeks, the first people to acquire rational thought and formulate universal laws for the operation of the universe, created a Goddess who personified intelligence and wisdom. Athena's help in the Battle of the Giants was invaluable, where she killed and damaged Pallas and plunged Enceladus together with Sicily. Apart from that, she was the only one supporting Zeus, when the terrible Typhoon rushed to mount Olympus. Athena loved martial arts and was always involved in them. The people of Athens used to celebrate some festivals in Athena’s honour, such as the Panathenaic Games, the Arrhephoria, the Skirophoria, and the Plynteria – Kallynteria. Athena had no love affairs at all, and thus symbolized the eternal virginity (Greek word: parthenia). This is why the Athenians called the temple of the Goddess on the Acropolis “Parthenon”.
