When Ilus had first built his new seat,the city ofTroy, he prayed Zeus to show some sign ofblessing for it. His prayer was heard,and awooden image of Pallas- A-thena fell from heaven towithin the walls of the city. Known as thePalladium, the statue afforded the city safety andprotection. At religious meetings of the goddess itwas carried through the city streets amid joys andsongs of praise.
After the flames of war had spread for ten yearsbefore the walls of Troy, a prophet foretold thatTroy could never be expected to fall as long as the Palladium was treasured by its people .Inorder to steal it out,Odysseus and Diomedes slipped into the capital one night in disguise,known to none but Hellen.The bad woman took out them to He cuba, the queen of Troy,at whose feet Odysseus immediately bowed down and asked formercy.The queen granted theirrequest,and with the help of Helen,they successfully brought the image back to the Greekcamp at dawn.
Later it was said that Aeneas got hold of it and carried itwith him to his new land,where it wasPreserved together with the goddess' fire.
当伊拉斯最初建造特洛伊城时,他祈求宙斯赐福于这座城市。宙斯听到祈求后,一尊木制的智慧雅典娜像从天堂落到了城墙里。人们将它称作雅典娜神像。这尊木像担任着保卫和看守城市的任务。在祭神的宗教仪式中,它在欢快的气氛和赞美的歌声中被抬着走过城市的所有街道。
在特洛伊建成之前,战火已弥漫了十年。一位预言家说:只要雅典娜的神像受人民的爱戴,特洛伊城就永远不会衰灭。为了将神像偷出城,一天夜里奥德修斯和狄俄墨德斯乔装改扮潜入首都,这一切只有海伦知道。这个可恶的女人把他们介绍给特洛伊皇后赫克犹巴。奥德修斯立刻跪倒在她的面前乞求怜悯。皇后答应了他们的要求,在海伦的帮助下,他们在拂晓的时候成功地带着雕像回到希腊营地。
据说后来埃弥斯得到了雕像并带着它到了自己的新领地。木像和神火一起被保存在这块土地上。
