Arachne

I am Arachne; I was a young woman from Lydia, sometimes I was a princess. My story was told throughout ancient Greece and it helped serve as a warning to all mortals to respect the gods. When I was mortal they used me like an art of weaving and the nymphs of the forest abandoned their jobs for looking at me, because I have a lot of talent. I wove beautiful fabrics of delicate designs, and the people began to admire my work. I had been taught by the goddess Athena. Athena was my teacher, but I think that I am better than she is in weaving. and “I have achieved this marvelous skill due to my own talent, hard work, and efforts." Bibliography
