Two very different goddesses
Athenarum incolae venerabant deam Minervam; Minerva erat enim non solum dea sapientiae, scientiarum litterarumque, sed etiam Athenarum patrona. Athenienses eam Athenam appellabant. In eius tutela praesertim poetae erant. Minerva gestabat autem hastam, galeam et sciitum quod pugnarum dea erat ideoque amabat bellum et audaciam et sperne-bat nuptias. Deae sacra erat olea et inter feras noctua. Diana, Latonae filia, silvarum dea erat et in silvis vivebat; Diana etiam regina nympharum erat et cum sociis nymphis feras agitabat telis; tunicam Alban et succinctam induebat. Dianae cervae sacrae erant. In its protection habebat praesertim puellas.
