The name Athena for the goddess of Athens has roots in ancient Greek language and mythology.
Some scholars suggest that the name "Athena" might have pre-Greek origins, possibly from the Mycenaean civilization or another earlier culture.
In the Linear B script used by the Mycenaeans, the goddess appears as "A-ta-na" or "A-ta-na-po-ti-ni-ja," which means "Mistress Athena." This suggests that the name may have been adopted by the Greeks from an earlier language.
Another theory is that the name "Athena" could be derived from the Greek word "ἄστη" (ástē), meaning "city." Since Athena was the patron goddess of the city of Athens, her name might be linked to her role as a protector of the city.
In this context, the name might be related to words meaning "sharp" or "pointed," reflecting Athena's attributes as a goddess of wisdom and war, known for her sharp intellect and strategic mind.
This suggests that the city was named in reference to a group or sisterhood associated with the goddess Athena, who was their patron deity.
The suffix "-ene" found in Athena's name is more commonly associated with place names in ancient Greek rather than personal names, further supporting the idea that Athena's name is derived from the city.
In summary, Athena's name is likely derived from the city of Athens, reflecting a broader pattern in ancient Greek religion where city goddesses were often named after the cities they protected and were worshipped in.
Athena originated as an Aegean goddess linked to the palace, overseeing household crafts and protecting the king.
One significant inscription, "a-ta-na po-ti-ni-ja," found in Linear B tablets at Knossos, is often translated as "Mistress Athena," though its connection to Athens remains unclear.
Some scholars propose that Athena evolved from earlier Minoan and Mycenaean deities, potentially associated with Zeus.
Initially, she might have been linked to birds or snakes, but over time, Athena shed these animalistic forms, retaining only symbolic representations like the owl.
In the Oera Linda Book, Athena (Greek: Athénè or Pallas) is not the mythical goddess born fully armed from Zeus’s head.
These symbols later fed into classical depictions of Athena (wisdom, owl) and her role as protector of navigation/shipbuilding.
According to the Oera Linda narrative, this real northern priestess became the prototype for the Greek virgin goddess Pallas Athena — wise, associated with the owl, crafts, and later navigation/shipbuilding.
Athens was under the protection of Athena, while Atlantis was under the domain of Poseidon.
110c-110dAthens, at that time, was governed by the goddess Athena, much like in the present day.
