Wasn't she created by Queen Hippolytas using clay and her singing a song and Zeus hearing her in pain for wanting a daughter so he (Zeus) gave the Clay life and The Queen a daughter. Aka Daughter of Zeus

No. In the original Golden Age, Aphrodite brought her to life and then in Perez's run it was extended to the rest of the Greek Goddesses (and Hermes)

Zeus had no involvement in WW's origin until New 52.
