Athena's owl, the Little Owl (Athene noctua), often doesn't have a specific name in myth but is called Glauca, Glaucus, or Glaux (meaning "gleaming" or "bright-eyed") and symbolizes wisdom, insight, and the city of Athens itself, appearing on ancient coins and associated with her epithet Glaukopis. Species: The specific bird is the (European) Little Owl (Athene noctua), common in Greece. Symbolism: It represents wisdom, vigilance, and the ability to see hidden truths, reflecting Athena's own attributes as goddess of wisdom. Names: It's often referred to as the "Owl of Athena" or "Owl of Minerva" (her Roman counterpart). In Greek, Glaux (or Glauca) refers to the owl and is linked to Athena's "owl-eyed" (glaukopis) epithet. Mythological Connection: Some Roman myths mention a woman, Nyctimene, transformed into an owl by Athena for protection, but this is a later story. Cultural Significance: The owl was a powerful symbol for the city of Athens, appearing on coins and pottery. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Voila: My birthday gift to myself this year: My first tattoo. I chose Athena's owl, Glaucus ("bright-eyed").

I think a Wonder should reflect the cultural highpoint of the civilization. I am not sure the destruction of a structure of another civilization is a highpoint. The Grove of Fetters would be a more appropriate candidate. Imagine, the player spends 3500 resources and places the wonder in the most defensible location of the city, only to get the smoking ruins of a camp...

A German and an Italian enter a bar. Perfectly normal conversation ensues.

It would be an interesting mechanic if when the Germans play against Rome and destroy an Army Camp, they get their Wonder for free.

Don't underestimate how much other people play. For example, I have 8,445 replays in total ;-)

You know, my father used to say: it's not the size of the win, it's the size of the arson that matters.

Beautiful tattoo, well pigmented and the line work is well done! Nothing better than a birthday tattoo!

But... IT'S A HUGE WIN !!!

Very nice.

@Stan` Let's get this in.

Sorry, I just have to express it: I am loving it!

Äääähhhhhh Is that how the German wonder is supposed to look like when it's not destroyed???

replacement of feminization, since we now use civilians instead of women/female citizens. I suppose we could flip the number and call it militarization. Or just percent civilians.
