It is the correct answer whether your autistic ass likes it or not. Hera's animal is the cow, and so she is cow-faced, just as Athena's animal is the owl and so she is owl-faced (which /pol/ illiterates insist should be translated "blue-eyed" because they are retards)

Did you have a stroke or are you seriously saying the entire study of the Greek language is wrong because Athena being "gray-eyed" is a Neo-Nazi conspiracy?
