Athena Statue

The Parthenon was constructed upon the Acropolis just to house this magnificent venerable 30-foot-tall image by Pheidias. Her attributes are self-confidence, power, courage, intelligence and diplomacy. The Romans called her Minerva. The virgin goddess gained the powers of the Gorgon Medusa, whose face is embossed on her shield.
