| | Theseus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Theseus was a founder-hero, like Perseus, Cadmus or Heracles, all of whom battled and overcame foes that were identified with an archaic religious and social order. | | | As Heracles was the Dorian hero, Theseus was the Ionian founding hero, considered by Athenians as their own great reformer. | | | King Minos, a son of Zeus, demanded he prove his claim by bringing up a golden ring he threw into the ocean, and Theseus descended to the Palace of the Sea, a motif used by the 5th-century Attic vase-painters. |

| | Theseus - The Athenian Adventurer |
| | Theseus killed him in a fair fight, and from then on he used Periphetes' club as his own weapon. | | | To the poor people, he complained that Theseus was not a native Athenian, and this foreigner was only dangling the delusion of liberty in order to boss them around. | | | Continuing on through the Isthmus of Corinth, Theseus found Sinnis, who was called the Pine-Bender because this was his manner of executing his victims. |

| | So Theseus cast himself into the sea and brought back, not only the ring of Minos 2 but also the crown that the Nereid Thetis had received from Aphrodite as a wedding gift (though some believe this crown came from Amphitrite, wife of Poseidon). | | | A valuable one, for by the glow of the gold and gems Theseus had been able to make his way out of the gloomy Labyrinth, and not as others believed by unwinding the so called Ariadne's thread. | | | Yet others have said that Dionysus 2 received this golden crown with Indian gems from Ariadne herself as a present. |
