Aeacus
the King of Pythia
According to Greek mythology Aeacus was a King well noted for his
piety by his Pythian subjects. Aeacus had three sons, Telamon and
Peleus by his first wife Endeia, and Phocas his youngest son, by
Psamathe.
The two eldest sons of King Aeacus, Telamon and Peleus
grew increasingly resentful and jealous of their younger half
brother Phocus, eventually murdering him. When King Aeacus found
out what his two eldest sons had done, Aeacus banished them for
life from his Kingdom of Pythia. |
