What is one interesting story about Athena?

My personal favorite story about Athena would be the story of Arachne. Arachne was an incredibly gifted weaver and thought she was better than Athena, the patron goddess of weaving. So, Athena came and challenged her to a weaving battle as an old woman. When the challenge started Athena revealed herself and both made flawless pieces. Athena was angry at Arachne because of the skill displayed and touched Arachne's head and she felt full guilt. Arachne then killed herself. Athena felt bad about this and brought Arachne back as spiders and so her skill would live on forever in spiders.

How can Annabeth be Athena's daughter when Athena is one of the three virgin Goddesses?

The character 'Annabeth' from Rick Riordan's 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians' series is entirely fictional. In 'actual' Greek mythology, Athena never had any children. In the Percy Jackson series, it was described that Annabeth was produced similarly to how Athena herself was born- Annabeth was born from thoughts, not an actual sexual union. It is explained in the 4th book. Athena was born from a cut in zues's head and she grew out of it fully formed. the athenian children are created in a similar way just without the cut. the ingenuity of the father and the sheer power of Athena combine to create a child.


Stories about Athena?

The story of Athena's birth: When Zeus was warned that if his wife Metis had a son, that he would overthrow his father, Zeus swallowed Metis. Later, Zeus got a terrible headache. Hephaestus, the god a blacksmiths, opened up Zeus's skull and out came Athena, fully grown and dressed in armor. The story of Arachne: Arachne was a young maiden who weaved beautifully. One day she bragged that she was better than Athena, the goddess of weaving. Angered, Athena visited Arachne in the disguise of a old woman. She told her to take back what she said and honor Athena as the greatest weaver. Arachne refused to and challenged the goddess to a contest. In fury, Athena threw off her disguise and excepted the girl's challenge. Athena weaved a glorious tapestry showing the Olympian gods in all of their glory. Arachne also weaved a flawless tapestry, but it mocked Zeus and all of his wives. In outrage Athena tore apart Arachne's tapestry. The scared Arachne tried to hang herself, but before she could, Athena turned her into a spider. The story of the contest for Athens: Both Athena and Poseidon wanted to be the patron god of the newly found Greek city. So they decided whoever gave the best gift to the people of that city would have it. Poseidon gave them a spring, but it was salty like the sea. Athena gave them the first olive tree. Athena's gift was judged as the better, since it gave food, oil, wood, and shade. Then the people named their city Athens, after their patron goddess.
