Агафокл
The owl of Athena even became the common obverse of the Athenian tetradrachms after 510BC and according to Philochorus, the Athenian tetradrachm was known as "glaux" (γλαύξ, little owl) throughout the ancient world and "owl" in present-day numismatics. They were not, however, used exclusively by them to represent Athena and were even used for motivation during battles by other Greek cities, such as in the victory of Agathocles of Syracuse over the Carthaginians in 310BC—in which owls flying through the ranks were interpreted as Athena's blessing—or in the Battle of Salamis, chronicled in Plutarch's biography of Themistocles.
