Athens
Athens (Athina) named after Athena the goddess of wisdom, who, according to legend, won the city after defeating Poseidon in a duel. Athena's victory was celebrated by the construction of a temple on the Acropolis - the site of the city's earliest settlement. Physical evidence of the city's success was matched by achievements in the intellectual arts: democracy was born, drama flourished and Socrates conceived the foundations of Western philosophy.
