In ancient Greek mythology Athena was the goddess of war, wisdom, and handicrafts. She was one of the 12 gods believed to live on Mount Olympus. She is associated with the Roman goddess Minerva because they shared many of the same characteristics.
Athena is a virgin goddess, but she has a son. Athena is credited with being part-mother of Erichthonius, a half-snake half-man creature, through an attempted rape by Hephaestus, whose seed spilled on her leg. When Athena wiped it off, it fell to earth (Gaia) who became the other part-mother.
