Athena was born fully grown and armed from the head of the king of the gods, Zeus. She was the protective goddess of the city of Athens, which dedicated its main temple, the Parthenon, located on the Acropolis, to her. Inside the temple stood a colossal statue of Athena Parthenos (“virgin”) crafted by the great Athenian sculptor Phidias in marble and gold. The temple’s pediments depict two scenes from the goddess’s life: her birth and her dispute with the sea god Poseidon for the patronage of Athens. She also served as a protector of Greek heroes such as Perseus and Odysseus. Her attributes include the olive tree, owl, helmet, spear, aegis, and shield with the head of Medusa.
