Very interesting…When I was young I studied Greek Mythology a little due to the name… I also had a group of girls who were my best friends in my class in grade school who I have recently reconnected with on facebook named Persephone, Demetra, and Dianna… we have fun with it:)

Whats a pagan or a witch what is that?

Well anyway when I think of a greek goddess. Athena is the first one to come to mind.
Athena and Artemis are my favorite.
There is no proof that they are real
But there isn’t any proof that they are not

Actually, I really am a witch. I’m not sure why it matters, although I do think that it gives my information a bit more authority than if it was being written by a Christian. Athena may not be real to you, but she is real to me, as real as your God is to you.

Thanks so much for the stuff on this site! I’m doing a project on Athena in my Latin class, and this will be a big help. Even though she isn’t real, Athena has to be the coolest Greek goddess ever!

P.S. : I hope none of you are really pagans or witches!

Hi Mike,
Many of the epithets were found on the Theoi Project page on Athena’s titles: http://www.theoi.com/Cult/AthenaTitles.html. They give the original sources, such as Homer and Pausanias. Some I tracked down just by googling “Athena epithets” and going from there.

Good luck!

Hello, I’m doing a research project and would like to know your sources of these epithets. Many of them I’m familiar with, but others I am not, and would like to be able to cite the original sources. Thank you very much.

I don’t see this epithet in your list: A t h e n a C y n t h i a, derived from the Sanctuary of Athena on Mount Cynthus on the island of Delos. http://www.goddess-athena.org/Museum/Temples/Delos/index.htm
