Athena Corinthian Helmet Ancient Greek Mythology, Coffee & Tea Mug
Introducing our exclusive mug featuring Athena in a Corinthian helmet, inspired by the legendary silver staters of Corinth from the 4th century BC.
According to Greek mythology, Athena was born fully grown and armored from the head of her father, Zeus, after he swallowed her mother, Metis, fearing that their child would surpass him in power. This striking design pays homage to the goddess of wisdom, war, and strategy—one of the most revered deities of the ancient world.
On the other side, the mug showcases a Sphinx, inspired by a Roman provincial cistophorus coin. The Sphinx held deep symbolic meaning in both Greek and Egyptian mythology, representing wisdom and mystery. Roman Emperor Augustus (formerly known as Octavian) famously wore a ring engraved with a Sphinx, as noted by the historian Suetonius in The Twelve Caesars. This emblem served as a personal symbol of guidance and intellect for the emperor.
With its rich historical inspiration and timeless design, this mug is perfect for history enthusiasts, mythology lovers, and collectors alike.
