Once upon a time, a dispute broke out between two powerful gods for the right to give their name to a glorious city. Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom, wished to perpetuate themselves by naming the city after themselves. The battle was so fierce that Zeus decreed that each of them should present a gift to the inhabitants, and they would choose whose gift was preferable.
Poseidon swung his trident and struck the rock of the Acropolis, from which a spring of seawater gushed. "He will warn you of impending storms, and your city will become the lord of the seas," the god declared. Athena knelt down and touched the ground, where an olive tree grew from under her hand. "Food, oil, wood and light — your city will become a symbol of civilization," said the goddess. The inhabitants preferred the gift of Athena, despite Poseidon's wrath, and since then the city has been named Athena — Athena.
Greek sculptors were happy to capture this divine dispute in their works. The king is a copy of the famous statue "Poseidon of Melos" (II century BC), and the queen embodies the majestic "Athena Promachos" (450 BC, Acropolis Museum). The elephant is inspired by a bronze Hellenistic statue, and the horse is based on the marble facade of the Parthenon, made by Phidias. The rook is a reproduction of one of the most famous attic steles dedicated to the young Aristion, who died in battle. The pawn is a bronze statue of a warrior in full armor dating back to 500 BC.
