What deity was born from Zeus' head?

The correct answer is Athena. In Greek mythology, she is famously known to have been born fully grown and armored from Zeus' forehead. This unusual birth is often interpreted as a symbolic representation of her attributes, including wisdom and strategic warfare. The myth recounts that Zeus, fearing a prophecy concerning his child by Metis (the goddess of wisdom), swallowed Metis while she was pregnant. Later, he experienced an incredible headache, leading to Athena's miraculous emergence. This narrative emphasizes her association with both intelligence and warfare, contrasting the other deities listed, who do not share such a distinctive birth story.

Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, is said to have emerged from the sea foam. Artemis, the goddess of the hunt and wilderness, is commonly known as the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, is known as a daughter of Cronus and Rhea. Each of these deities has their own unique origin stories that do not involve being born from Zeus' head, which differentiates Athena's myth from theirs.
