- 1雅典娜(希臘神話裡的智慧與技藝女神)
Athena is, in Greek mythology, the goddess of wisdom, skilled crafts, and a clever kind of war — not wild fighting, but planning, skill, and courage with a clear head. The city of Athens took her as its protector; the on the was her great temple. Old stories often give her an owl, and an olive tree. It is a proper name, so it takes a capital letter. English keeps this school-and-Latin form Athena; modern Greek has a sister form, Athina. Though actually, students mix her up with Athens the city, and sometimes with other war goddesses. She is not the city. And she is not only “the smart one”: craft and strategy sit beside wisdom in the old stories.
組成From Middle English Athena, from Latin Athēna, from Ancient Greek Athēnâ. Athina is a doublet: another form of the same name, closer to modern Greek.
