Question

i need a myth about nike
it doesnt have to be all about her it can have a nother greek god or goddess in it

Answer 1

Nike Greek goddess of victory. First mentioned in Hesiod's Theogony. Daughter of the giant Pallas and the underworld river Styx. She seems originally to have been an attribute of Zeus or Athena (e.g.: Athena Nike), in which capacity she was wingless and often depicted as a small figure held in the hand of either deity. As an independent deity, she was depicted as winged and bearing the laurel wreath which was delivered to the victor in a competition, whether in war, sport, artistic contests or any other endeavour. However, she was never entirely independent, as she remained the personification of victory delivered by Zeus or Athena. She was known to the Romans as Victoria.

Answer 2

Nike is an OLD goddess, born before the Olympians and is the symbol for the Olympic games.
Daughter Pallas and Styx she helps against the battle of the titans and was rewarded by Zues.

Answer 3

There is a statue of wingless Nike in Athene (I think it's on the acropolis). She is depicted so because according to the legend, the athenians cut her wings so she couldn't depart from them, and the victory would always be on their side.
