Greek Goddess. Athena: 

Greek Goddess. Athena By: Paris Luker

Physical Characteristics: 

Physical Characteristics Athena is crowed with a crested helm Armed with a shield and spear Cloak wrapped around her arm and breast Athenas symbols are the owl, snake, chariot, and olive branch

What Athena is responsible for: 

What Athena is responsible for As we should know from the story, Athena is known to be crafty and she is known for teaching the usefull arts. Such as farming, spinning, weaving, and music. So Athena was responisble for teaching these usefull arts to people.

Strengths/Weakness: 

Strengths/Weakness Strenths: Athena was rational and intelligent which helped her be a powerfull defender. Weakness: Athena was never really intouch with her emotions. Some would like to say she was too ruled by her head maybe even unaprochable and lacking compassion. But to be a goddess of war, I’m not sure you should be too intouch with your emotions.

Words/Actions that show her stengths/weakness: 

Words/Actions that show her stengths/weakness Unemotional Powerful Defender Artistic Unaprochable Not compassionate

Personality: 

Personality Well Athena was a strong and powerful goddess but she was also jelous and hated when people doubted her. As I read in her one of her storys a young girl thought to herself that she was much better at spinning then Athena. Athena challenged the girl to a contest and if the girl won then athena would spare her life. The girl didn’t win and she hung herself. Yes Athena wise, beautiful, and artistic, but every god/goddess has a flaw.

Words/actions that discribe her personality: 

Words/actions that discribe her personality Athena can be unemotional, but in some ways that’s good for her because she is a defender. Just like the spinning competition, Athena doesn’t know how to use her feelings and be compassionate. But Athena is Artistic and wise.
