Minerva, also known as Pallas, was a maiden of such celebrity that foolish people believed her to be of more than mortal origin. . . . As time went by, it was observed that this woman did many things never before seen. . . . The Greeks, who at that time surpassed everyone else in good sense, believed that she had been born, not from a mother, but from Jupiter's head and had fallen from heaven.
~Giovanni Boccaccio, Famous Women, translated by Virginia Brown
