The Percy Jackson books were some of my favorite books growing up, and when a movie came out, I couldn't wait to see it. The people agreed the olive tree was more useful, and therefore named the city "Athens", in honor of Athena. The people realized the tree had many uses: Its fruit for eating, its wood for building and burning, the oil from its fruit for cooking, and for bathing, and the pits of the olives could be planted, therefore bringing up more olive trees. Unfortunately, the water turned out to be too salty, and therefore useless. Poseidon stuck his trident into the ground, and created a spring, from which the townspeople could use the water. Both agreed that they would bestow a gift onto the town, and whichever gift was deemed more useful, that giver would have the town named after him or her.

'Percy Jackson' author Rick Riordan not a fan of the film adaptations, calls them a 'mess' You feel I must have been coerced, brainwashed, bribed, threatened, whatever, or I as a white male author never would have chosen a Black actor for the part of this canonically white girl." "You have decided that I couldn’t possibly mean what I have always said: That the true nature of the character lies in their personality. The author added that those saying Jeffries doesn't fit the role because she's not white are dismissing her "years of hard work honing her craft, her talent, her tenacity, her focus, her screen presence."
