Minerva is Roman, not Greek! You're thinking of Athena. Note that Greek wisdom goddess Athena is shown with the owl, and Greek love goddess Aphrodite is shown with the swan. In India, the wisdom goddess Saraswati has the swan, and the love goddess Lakshmi has the owl. -- Len/ Kalipadma ______________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!
