STORY BEHIND

The origins of the olive branch as a peace symbol can be traced back to ancient Greek. In Greek mythology, Poseidon, the god of the sea, claimed the ownership of the region of Attica by striking his trident into the ground and creating a saltwater spring. However, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, challenged him by planting an olive tree in the region. This olive tree provided the inhabitants of Attica with food, oil and wood. The court of gods and goddesses intervened and decided that Athena had the better right to the land, since she had given a better gift. She became the patron goddess of Attica, which was renamed Athens to honour her, and the olive tree has been a symbol of peace ever since.
