ATHENA, THE GREEK GODDESS OF DOMESTIC ARTS


  By how much the men are expert above all other men
in propelling a swift ship on the sea, by thus much the women 
are skilled at the loom, for Athena has given to them beyond all others
a knowledge of beautiful craftwork, and noble minds.--Homer, Odyssey, 7.108-11
