Although&nbsp;Kekropas was a serpentlike mythical being, he was a benevolent king and the people of&nbsp;Kekropia respected and obeyed him. But the ancient gods of Greece often meddled in&nbsp;human affairs, demanding the bestowment of cities, human spouses, even the fruits of&nbsp;human labor. Thus, the goddess Athena quarreled with god Poseidon over the sovereignty of&nbsp;Kekropia. They invited king Kekropas to judge their argument, calling upon the rest of the&nbsp;Olympian gods to attend their \u201cfight\u201d, which was held at the Acropolis Hill. The first&nbsp;contestant was Poseidon, who stroke the ground with his trident and a spurt of sea water<br \/>\ncreated a small lake which was given the name Erechtheida: his gift to the people of&nbsp;Kekropia was water. Then it was Athena\u2019s turn to plant a young olive tree on a rock, which&nbsp;blossomed instantly, offering its fruits: this tree was her gift to the Kekropean people. When&nbsp;both gods had presented their gifts, Zeus announced the end of the contest and invited the&nbsp;rest of the gods, along with king Kekropas to make their verdict. Kekropas argued in his mind&nbsp;that his city was surrounded by water, rendering Poseidon\u2019s gift somewhat redundant.&nbsp;Athena\u2019s gift, on the other hand, didn\u2019t need much water in order to make fruits and feed&nbsp;the people. Thus he declared the goddess Athena as the winner and the city was named&nbsp;Athens in her honor. As for that first olive tree, according to the legend it survived long after&nbsp;the godly contest, never failing to meet the city\u2019s increasing needs.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&#039;\u0395\u03ba\u03b8\u03b5\u03c3\u03b7 &quot;\u03a4\u03bf \u03b4\u03ad\u03bd\u03c4\u03c1\u03bf \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u03c0\u03bb\u03b7\u03b3\u03ce\u03bd\u03b1\u03bc\u03b5&quot; \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5 \u0386\u03b3\u03b3\u03b5\u03bb\u03bf\u03c5 \u03a0\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03b3\u03b9\u03c9\u03c4\u03af\u03b4\u03b7 - \u0395\u03b9\u03ba\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 \u039a\u03cd\u03ba\u03bb\u03bf\u03c2 Sianti\" width=\"1220\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/s8bSvsRA9Cs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hand made and signed by Aggelos Panagiotidis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14581,"template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[398,1987,399,1988,2047],"product_tag":[2215,2504,2492,2562,2507,2493,2957,2594,2560,2585,2491,2561],"class_list":{"0":"post-3492","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-collections","7":"product_cat-eshop-en","8":"product_cat-microsculpture","9":"product_cat-microsculpture-shop","10":"product_cat-wedding-gifts","11":"product_tag-aggelos-panagiotidis-en","12":"product_tag-brass","13":"product_tag-corporate-gifts","14":"product_tag-glory","15":"product_tag-microsculpture","16":"product_tag-office-gifts","17":"product_tag-olive-tree","18":"product_tag-olympic-games","19":"product_tag-race","20":"product_tag-sacred-tree","21":"product_tag-wedding-gifts","22":"product_tag-win","23":"product_shipping_class-0-2kg","25":"first","26":"instock","27":"taxable","28":"shipping-taxable","29":"purchasable","30":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Olive Tree Small Sculpture by the Sculptor Aggelos Panagiotidis at Ikastikos Kiklos Sianti Gallery.<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Olive Tree Small Sculpture by the Sculptor Aggelos Panagiotidis at Ikastikos Kiklos Sianti Gallery.
