  • Athena & Nike

    As noted, the temple was dedicated to Athena as the victorious protector and defender of Athens. Athena Nike was only one of her many epithets, which included Athena Ergane ("Athena the Industrious"), Athena Promachos ("Athena who Fights from the Front") and Athena Parthenos ("Athena the Virgin"), this last, of course, giving the Parthenon its name...

  • Athena Wins Athens

    It is unclear when Athena became the patron goddess of the city as the story is mythological. There are a number of variations on the tale, but all claim she won a contest with Poseidonover who would preside over the city all the gods considered the most beautiful. Poseidon struck a rock on the Acropolis and provided the city with fresh water while...

  • Early Acropolis & Worship

    This version of the myth is reported later by the Roman writer Varro (l. 116-27 BCE), and it is unclear when it was first written. According to scholar Robin Waterfield, the basic story of the contest between Athena and Poseidon most likely signifies an early loss of status for the god to the goddess when villages in Attica banded together under he...

  • Persian Invasion & Pericles’ Restoration

    In 490 BCE, the Persians invaded Greece in retaliation for Athenian support of the revolt of the Ionian Greeks of Asia Minor against the Achaemenid Empire (c. 550-330 BCE) but were defeated at the Battle of Marathon. Darius I (the Great, r. 522-486 BCE), emperor of the Persians, planned a second invasion, but the execution of the attack would fall ...

  • The Temple of Athena Nike

    The official decree for construction was issued in 449 BCE, but lack of funding prevented any work until c. 427 BCE, two years after Pericles died in the Plagueof Athens of 429 BCE. The temple was designed by Kallicrates (also given as Callicrates, l. c. 470-420 BCE), one of the architects of the Parthenon. It was completed in 420 BCE at which time...

What is the temple of Athena Nike?

The Temple of Athena Nike, on the southwest bastion of the Acropolis, is smaller than the other buildings behind it but no less impressive. It was completed in 420 BCE during the restoration of Athens after the Persian invasion of 480 BCE and was designed to greet those visiting Athena’s complex.

What is the ratio of columns in the temple of Athena Nike?

The temple's ratio of the column height to its length is 7:1 instead of the customary 9:1 of other Ionic temples. The parapet of the Temple of Athena Nike surrounded the temple and acted as a guardrail to protect people from falling off the steep bastion.

When was the parapet of Athena Nike built?

The parapet was built after the temple was complete, perhaps as late as 410 BCE. Much later in its history in 1687, during Ottoman occupation the temple of Athena Nike was dismantled when the “Venetians” besieged the Turks at the Acropolis. The Turks used the stones from the temple to build a bastion next to the Propylaia.

What is the relationship between Athena and Nike?

Athena was patron deity of Athens and Nike was the goddess of victory often associated so closely with her that the two became synchronized as Athena Nike ("Athena of Victory").
