 |
|
Okay...this game is really easy to understand. I'll start and pick a category and I'll name one thing in that category that begins with an A. Then, if you are next, you'll name one thing in that category that begins with a B.
The person who gets the Z gets to choose the new category and we start again.
Category: Greek and Roman Gods and Goddesses
Athena - the goddess of civilization, specifically wisdom, weaving, crafts and the allegedly more noble side of war, as violence and bloodlust were Ares's domain. Athena's wisdom encompasses the technical knowledge employed in weaving, metal-working, but also includes the cunning intelligence (metis) of such figures as Odysseus. |
