| description | In Greek polytheism, choosing the name of the divinity is a fundamental step in any interaction between humans and non-humans. If, for a large number of deities, it is in relation to the adjective which will complete the deity’s name, it happens that, for certain deities, the theonym is itself the object of this choice. Athena is a striking example of this. The goddess has indeed another name, “Pallas”, which is attested in Homeric epics. This paper will focus on the place of the name “Pallas” among the profusion of designations of the goddess Athena. For this purpose, we will analyse the uses of Athena’s “other name” in the various Athenian textual documents, both epigraphic and literary. |
