EVOO IN SHARES BY A GREEK OLIVE OIL PRODUCER - Volume 2



PALLADA” – Another epithet for the goddess Athena, protector of Athens

The legend says that everything started when Goddess Athena (which one of the many epithets for her was “PALLADA”) and God Poseidon, where battling for the city of Athens protection.

They agreed that the city would belong, to the one that would deliver a gift to the city that would be most important and useful for its citizens.

This competition began when God Poseidon hit on the one side of the hill of Acropolis his trident and a horse appeared. Right after Goddess Athena made an Olive tree appear.

Goddess Athena’s gift to the citizens of the city of Athens, was more useful for the city, because the wood of the tree could be useful for fire, the fruit of olive could be useful for food and the juice of the olive could be Oil to cook anything else.


Goddess Athena’s offer to the ancient Athenians, improved the human’s nutritional habit forever!
