Pygmy (Greek Mythology) $74.88 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Pygmies (Greek: ) were a tribe of diminutive humans in Greek mythology. Their name in Greek was Pygmaioi, from pygm, the length of the forearm. According to the Iliad, they were involved in a constant war with the cranes, which migrated in winter to their homeland on the southern shores of the earthencircling river Oceanus. In art the scene was popular with little Pygmies armed with spears and slings, riding on the backs of goats, battling the flying cranes. The 2ndcentury BC tomb near Panticapaeum, Crimea shows the battle of human pygmies with a flock of herons. The Pygmies were often portrayed as pudgy, comical dwarfs.

APIs (Greek Mythology) $87.62 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

During his reign he established a tyrannical government and called the Peloponnesus after his own name Apia: but he was killed in a conspiracy headed by Thelxion, king of Sparta, and Telchis. Argus Panoptes, the descendant of his sister Niobe, avenged his murder by putting Thelxion and Telchis to death. In another tradition, Apis is said to have given up his kingdom to his brother Argeus and to have gone to to Egypt where he reigned for a number of years. This statement shows that Egyptian myths were mixed up with the story of Apis, see Apis (Egyptian mythology). Author: Stawart, Delmar Thomas C.

Phaedra (Mythology) $79.66 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In Greek mythology, Phaedra (Phaidra) is the daughter of Minos, wife of Theseus and the mother of Demophon of Athens and Acamas. Phaedras name derives from the Greek word (phaidros), which meant bright. Though married to Theseus, Phaedra fell in love with Hippolytus, Theseus son born by either Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons, or Antiope, her sister. Euripides placed this story twice on the Athenian stage, of which one version survives. According to some sources, Hippolytus had spurned Aphrodite to remain a steadfast and virginal devotee of Artemis, and Aphrodite made Phaedra fall in love with him as a punishment. He rejected her. Alternatively, Phaedras nurse told Hippolytus of her love, and he swore he would not reveal her as a source of information. In revenge, Phaedra wrote Theseus a letter that claimed Hippolytus raped her. Theseus believed her and cursed Hippolytus with one of the three curses he had received from Poseidon.

Orion (Mythology) $103.56 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Orion was a giant huntsman of Greek mythology whom Zeus placed among the stars as the constellation of Orion. Ancient sources tell several different stories about Orion. There are two major versions of his birth and several versions of his death. The most important recorded episodes are his birth somewhere in Boeotia, his visit to Chios where he met Merope and was blinded by her father, Oenopion, the recovery of his sight at Lemnos, his hunting with Artemis on Crete, his death by the bow of Artemis or of the giant scorpion which became Scorpio, and his elevation to the heavens. Most ancient sources omit some of these episodes and several tell only one. These various incidents may originally have been independent, unrelated stories and it is impossible to tell whether omissions are simple brevity or represent a real disagreement.

Phoenix (Mythology) $60.54 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The phoenix is a mythical sacred firebird that can be found in the mythologies of the Persians, Greeks, Egyptians, Chinese, and (according to Sanchuniathon) Phoenicians.

It has a 500 to 1000 year lifecycle, near the end of which it builds itself a nest of twigs that then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix or phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again. The new phoenix is destined to live as long as its old self. In some stories, the new phoenix embalms the ashes of its old self in an egg made of myrrh and deposits it in the Egyptian city of Heliopolis (literally suncity in Greek). It is said that the birds cry is that of a beautiful song. In very few stories they are able to change into people.
