Athena
Athena was the Olympian goddess of wisdom and good counsel, war,
the defence of towns, heroic endeavour, weaving, pottery and
various other crafts. She was depicted as a stately woman armed
with a shield and spear,
and wearing a long robe, crested helm, and
the famed aegis--a snake-trimmed cape adorned with the monstrous
visage of the Gorgon Medusa.
