Re: [tied] Re: Religion

OK, but Zeus was helped by Metis. And if Metis and Athena were the same
goddess splitted into two? Maybe we had originally a couple Zeus and a
goddess (let's call her Metis-Athena). The trait of Athena's birth from
Zeus's head may be linked with the birth of many deities from Kumarbish (cf.
Dionysos from Zeus's thigh, Aphrodite from Ouranos's semen).
