Athena is the ancient Greek goddess associated with wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization, law and justice, strategic warfare, mathematics, strength, strategy, the arts, crafts, and skill. She is often depicted as a helper of heroes and is the patron and protector of various cities across Greece, most importantly the city of Athens. Athena is known for her calm temperament, as she uses wisdom and intelligence to solve problems rather than raw strength and force. In Roman mythology, she is identified with the goddess Minerva. The Hebrew translation for Athena is אתנה. In other languages, she is known as Athene in Latin, Athéna in French, Atenea in Spanish, and Athene in German. Athena is one of the most complex and multifaceted characters in Greek mythology, embodying both the nurturing aspects of a mother figure and the strategic prowess of a warrior.
