During the Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE, a pivotal moment in the Persian Wars. According to ancient Greek historian Herodotus, just before the battle, the Athenians saw an owl perched on a statue of Athena, a sign they interpreted as a divine omen. The owl, sacred to Athena, was seen as a symbol of victory and wisdom. The Athenians took this as a blessing from the goddess, and their fleet went on to defeat the much larger Persian navy. This event reinforced the owl's association with Athens and its connection to strategic wisdom and success in battle.
