I am here again with the 5th book of the series.
Athena, born from the head of her father (Zeus), is the goddess of crafts, art, science, inspiration, active and sharp intelligence.
Athena; She is the daughter of Zeus, the father of the gods, and the goddess of Wisdom, and Metis, the first wife of Zeus. Symbols; spear, olive branch, shield and owl. She is the chief goddess and protector of the city of Athens. He sided with the Achaeans in the Trojan War. She is also known as Minerva in Roman mythology.
Finally, I end my review by briefly explaining why the goddess Athena is called Pallas Athena:
In her youth, Athena had a friend named Pallas, whose name means "virgin, young girl". These two young girls often practice fighting together. One day, while they were practicing with their spears and shields, Athena accidentally caused the death of her friend. She was very upset about this and added Pallas to her name as a symbol of her pain. It is referred to as Pallas Athena in many sources.
Again and again, I say that it is one of the must-read books for mythology lovers (the entire series, of course) and I remain silent...
Happy Reading!
