Does anyone know where I can get information on the Roman Goddess Minerva?

Question

I need to know this for my latin class and my teacher has no good links up,

Well you know what Carl, I'm in a library. So screw you. :) I'm surrounded by books and not one of them is the one I need.....I came here with a question Not for your Smart *** remarks. BTW wikipedia isnt allowed at my school. But thanks much.

Answer 1

Yes I know a place with such information.
It is called a library. Check it out!

If you are already at a library obviously you are at the wrong one!
You don't say where you live nor what library you are at but the quality of libraries varies greatly between a high school library & a community college library & a major university's library. Also between a major city's main library & a small city's branch library.

No offense meant.

Answer 2

Minerva was the Roman goddess of war, wisdom and the crafts. In Britain at the turn of the 1st millennium CE, Minerva was depicted throughout Celtic Britain in both purely Roman fashion and in the more abstract Celtic style as illustrated above. But in Bath, at the temple of Aquae Sulis she becomes "fully equated with a Celtic goddess, Sulis".

Minerva was a Roman goddess of crafts and wisdom. This article focuses on Minerva in early Rome and in cultic practice. For information on literary mythological accounts of Minerva, which were heavily influenced by Greek mythology, see Athena.
