In Greek mythology, a little owl (Athene noctua) traditionally represents or accompanies Athena or Minerva, her syncretic incarnation in Roman mythology. She is the archetype of a strong, brave woman, boldly striding across life, whose greatest strength is her outstanding intelligence. Because of such association, the bird — often referred to as the "owl of Athena" or the "owl of Minerva" — has been used as a symbol of knowledge, wisdom, perspicacity and erudition throughout the Western world. Goddess Athena Nike victory coins were made in Athens.
