In Greek mythology Nike is the personification of victory, symbolizing triumph in battles and competitions. She is often depicted with wings, representing speed and success or with a laurel wreath or palm frond, the traditional emblems of success, awarded to victors in competitions or contests.
Nike was closely associated with Zeus and Athena.
The Roman equivalent is the goddess Victoria.
