"Athena, or Athene," often given the epithet Pallas, is the goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization, law and justice, mathematics, strength, war strategy, the arts, crafts, and skill in Greek religion and mythology. Minerva is the Roman goddess identified with Athena....She is the virgin patroness of Athens. The Athenians founded the Parthenon on the Acropolis of her namesake city, Athens (Athena Parthenos), in her honour."
I just realized that the shield should be higher up, considering how actual Ancient Greek hoplons were carried. But I decided to leave it that way, because it looked better that way, showing as much of the goddess as possible.
