Historical Details:
- The Helmet: She is depicted wearing a Corinthian-style helmet, pushed back to reveal her face, symbolizing her role as a rational protector rather than a berserker warrior.
- The Aegis & Gorgoneion: On her chest, she wears the Aegis, her protective goatskin breastplate. It features the Gorgoneion (the severed head of Medusa), an apotropaic amulet traditionally believed to ward off evil and petrify enemies.
- The Owl of Athena: Resting on her shoulder is the Athene noctua (Little Owl). In Greek mythology, the owl represents wisdom and the ability to see the truth in the darkness, serving as the goddess's sacred companion.
