ATHENE (or Athena) was the great Olympian goddess of wise counsel, war, the defense of towns, heroic endeavour, weaving, pottery and crafts.
She was depicted crowned with a crested helm, armed with shield and spear, and wearing the snake-trimmed aigis cloak wrapped around her breast and arm, adorned with the monstrous head of the Gorgon.
