the mascots of 2004 Olympic Summer Games in Athens



Athena and Phevos

The lovely mascots, Athena and Phevos, with thier whacking feet, longish necks and puny heads, one in deep yellow and the other is deep blue, are based on dolls, thousands of years old, found at archeological sites in Greece.




  • Greek mythology had it that Phevos and Athena are brother and sister named after two Greek gods

  • Phevos, the god of light and music

  • Athena, goddess of wisdom and patron of the city of Athens.
