The Olive Tree The sacred tree of olive, was always supposed to be a symbol of peace, fertility, prosperity & euphoria.

According to the ancient Greek myth, the olive tree was the present of goddess Athena, when she competed god Poseidon. It was she who brought the olive to the Greeks, as a gift. Zeus, the king of Greek Gods, had promised to give Attica (the peninsula where Athens is located) to the god or goddess who would made the most useful invention. Athena's gift of the olive, was useful for light, heat, food, medicine and perfume and was picked as a more peaceful invention than Poseidon's horse - touted as a rapid and powerful instrument of war.
