# 1 of the Essay Prompts from Class.

Question: Which of the gods in the odyssey has the most human characteristics and why?

Answer: In my opinion, I would say Athena has the most human characteristics.
In the book Odyssey, Athena would have the most human characteristics.
Firstly, even though Athena has powers like all the gods; she feels the pain for the humans and tries to help them as much as possible.
Secondly, Athena isn’t afraid to die and she has all the features of a human.
Thirdly, she doesn’t act like she’s a mystical god and tries to blend in with the humans; Athena cares about the humans as well.
In conclusion, Athena makes the most human goddess in the book.
