Translated from the Arabic by Roger Allen

Having lived for years in the west I know that many people here don't "get" the concept of arranged marriages. For many of us, falling in love is the only reason one should get married. Having someone pick a match out for you is more like a business transaction....where's the romance, the passion, in something like that, right? But for many, arranged marriages are a way of life. Falling in love amounts to nothing, it carries no weight as Kamila, a beautiful and impetuous girl from a village in in South Lebanon was about to find out.

Although Kamila was in love with one Muhammad, her family decreed that she should marry her dead sister's aging husband(the sister was bitten by a rabid rat) . Kamila was only 14 years old but was deemed a suitable match because she was strong enough to look after her husband's kids, cook his food and warm his bed. More importantly, her sister's widower was the patriarch of the family and it almost seemed as if Kamila was sacrificed to him for the sake of her extended family who lived under his roof. Kamila's husband, Abu- Hussein Muhammad, was pious and strict whereas Kamila was free-spirited and irreverent. She defied him every chance she got and no matter how hard the family tried, they were unable to tame her.

It wasn't long, however, when she managed to reconnect with the love-of-her-life, Muhammad and very soon the two were planning secret rendezvous in Muhammad's bedroom in the house he shared with his family or in darkened cinemas. I'd love to tell you what happens next, but I can't for fear of giving away the story.

Kamila's story is narrated to us in the first person but written by her daughter, well known Arabic writer, Hanan Al- Shaykh. Al Shaykh says that the first person narrative was a deliberate choice, she said, “My mother wrote this book. She is the one who spread her wings. I just blew the wind that took her on her long journey back in time.” I found this to be a tenderly-crafted memoir and even though the faults of our protagonist Kamila are quite glaring, you cannot help but fall under her spell, and that is a tribute to the writer who has made Kamila an utterly irresistible character.

Although the protagonist's personality towers over the book it doesn't dwarf it. I found myself thinking a lot about different issues that this book bring up, like "First Loves", are they really as special as they are made out to be or they over-romanticized? "Child Marriages", granted, this was Beirut in the 1930's but even they knew better than to allow a man to get his 15-year old wife pregnant? "Child Abandonment", at what point does a mother's happiness become more important to her than her children and how do you ever explain that to your children? "Illiteracy", what role it plays in establishing one's status in the hierarchy of life. Would Kamila's life have been any easier if she could read and write? "Legacy", towards the end of her life Kamila was frantic about having her life recorded, how important is it to us to be remembered fondly and accurately?

The cover art is striking and, to me it looks like a vintage movie poster. Because Kamila could neither read nor write, going to the movies was her only entertainment and the reader will note that she gleaned everything she knew about love and life from the movies. Which brings us to the interesting question of how much does art influence life? You will ponder over all these issues and more in this beautiful memoir, so if you would like your own copy simply write me a line here and I will be happy to put your name in a hat for a draw that will take place in about two weeks from now.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE........................................

It's Apu of "Apu's World". Congratulations Apu, please send me your address and I would be delighted to put a copy of this book in the mail to you!

A Q & A session with the author:

What does the title, The Locust and the Bird, refer to?

The Locust and the Bird is a fable about a king who was taking a stroll in his gardens when a Locust flew into the wide sleeve of his robe. A bird, in hot pursuit, flew in after it. The king sewed up the sleeve, sat on his throne and asked his people: “What is up my sleeve?” No one knew the answer. But it so happened that a man named Bird, who was desperately in love with a woman called Locust, was standing in the crowd. He came forward, only the face of his beloved in his mind, and proclaimed to his king:

Wails and Tales.

My life story is one long revelation.

Only the Locust can capture the Bird.

This is a story my mother told me. The locust signifies famine, hunger, destruction and unhappiness. Birds signify spring, love, hope and song. All these states describe my mother’s life.

Why did you finally decide to write and share your mother’s amazing story? Did she read any parts of it before she died, and what did she think of it? Did you sit down with her on a couple occasions right before and while writing the book, or are most of these tales your recollections when she told them to you growing up?

My mother left me when I was seven years old. This was her way of telling me why. As she unburdened, her story became an epic tale.My mother was illiterate, so she couldn’t read or write. But when we knew the book was going to be published, she had second thoughts: she didn’t want people to know how poor she’d been. When she was a child, she had to comb the fields after the harvest to find corn to eat. But after I read her a couple of chapters over the phone, she gave me her blessing.Yes, we sat together many times so she could relate her story, and then we continued over the phone, between Beirut and London . She’d wake up in the middle of the night and remember something and ring me at four in the morning.

Movies play an interesting and pivotal role in the book. What do you think movies represented for your mother? Do you think books played the same role in your own life?

Movies educated my mother. She learned everything about life through movies; about history, wars, countries, love, human bondage and relationships. She mimicked the movies: dressing, walking and talking like the stars she saw on the screen. She even learnt that pearls are found in the sea, and not in the ground. She escaped her stifling world through movies, as I later, entered a magical world through books.

You are primarily a fiction writer, how was it writing a non-fiction book, and one so personal as the memoir of your mother? Was it easy or difficult to find her voice and put it on paper?

I never felt writing The Locust and the Bird, that I was writing non-fiction. I felt all along it was a novel, the only difference being, in that when you write a novel, you don’t necessarily know how it’s going to end. In this book, I knew all along where I was heading. In my fiction I usually inherit the soul of my characters to such an extent that I inhabit them for a while, and the same thing happened when I was writing this, I stepped into her shoes. What made it easy, is that my mother had the spirit of a novelist, she was a natural storyteller, and she remembered small details, like the color of a stone. It didn’t come easily at first. I struggled with her voice at the beginning. I wrote the first chapters with myself as narrator, but that didn’t work, and then I tried writing in the third person, but it lacked immediacy. Then when I realised that my mother had been burdened all her life by her illiteracy, I realised I was her voice in the sense that I was simply a conduit, and I all I had to do was put the pen on the page, something she’d never been able to do.

Though The Locust and the Bird takes place in Lebanon , how is it a universal tale?

The Locust and the Bird is a universal story in the sense it’s about families, and everything that surrounds them: love, divorce, adultery, abandonment, poverty, injustice. But most importantly, for me, it’s a story about forgiveness.

There is a line in the book that your mother, “transformed her lies into a lifetime of naked honesty.” What did you mean by that line, and what does it say about your mother and her life?

My mother lied all her life, she was crafty and deceitful; but of course she did this to survive, and escape the confines of society and home. She used to be called a seductress, and I was worried, when I began the book, that she’d seduce me too, out of bravado, or to cover up the painful parts of her life. But in fact, she told me her story with an astonishing directness and honesty. And that’s when I got to know her for the first time.

Lotus, as soon as I saw the word 'giveaway' I was hooked :) Please enter me too, though I don't know if you can send to India.

The book sounds interesting - the story itself and also the concept of an autobiography written by a second person.

I have nothing against arranged marriages itself, having seen many happy ones but I do think many times, parents, while telling themselves that they want to do the best for their children - are actually guided by other factors, esp "what will people say", rather than the happiness of the child.

Yes, sorry about the partial review. I'm always in a dilemma when I write a review...do I reveal how the story unfolds or don't I? Personally, I hate knowing too much about a book (before I read it)...I just like to have a general synopsis and a little about the author's style of writing...

Great review. I think this book sounds really fascinating, and like something I would really like. I think the concept of arranged marriage is really very interesting, and I am always somewhat amazed when I read about a couple who started out in an arranged marriage and grow to love their spouses so completely that they end up thinking that the choice was perfect for them. Although I know that this is not really the case in this book, I think this would be a really engrossing read. Please enter me in this contest, and thanks for hosting it!

I liked what you said on arranged marriage - that its a part of life in some cultures. It indeed is & because people are so used to the idea from childhood, it doesn't evoke the horror that most westerners seem to have.
Having said that, I am still horrified to know that 14 year olds still get married to men twice, thrice their age; while its a "way of life in our culture" to the people who participate in it.
The book sounds like an interesting read because it doesn't promise that Kamila is lily-white - the story is that much more enthralling with real people -warts and all :)
I really hope I win this one :p

Sanjay said...

Hi Lotus! I have to say I loved this book review and your interview with the author, quite absorbing really!
Despite being from a culture where arranged marriages are quite common, I have never felt comfortable with the practice. Personal opinion though. I know it works for folks. But some of it does go against the notion of the freedom one should have in choosing your partner..but I digress.
I loved the free spirited Kamila, and while I understand that you don't want to give too much away, the author mentioned her mother leaving her when she was 7? Does that relate to your bringing up the issue of child abandonment?
Since Ms. Al-Shaykh, wrote this I am assuming she connected with her mother after these years?
Was it easy for her, would it have been the same without a memoir?
It is interesting how Kamila learned about the world thru the movies. While movies can and do educate us about the world, it depends what one is watching no?
Art can and does influence life, but only if one is open minded about interpreting art.
As for illiteracy, it does establish one's status in the hierarchy of life, but just as Kamila did not let is restrain her, I know of real life examples of people very close to me who have done the same.
I liked the book cover and would love to read the book, but my lack of time means it is not fair to put my name in the hat for it, so I won't.
Amazing how the title of the book came about and how it relates to Kamila's life too.
What I took from this was the irreducible complexity of human nature, Kamila exemplifies that.
I wonder if Kamila's telling the story of her life is an attempt to set the record straight? Was it her way of reconnecting with her daughter and other loved ones? Sorry if that is an obvious Q.
And I really loved the Qs you asked if the author, you should do this more often. You are excellent at it as are your reviews.
Enjoy the rest of the summer buddy.

Lotus Reads said...

@Sanj ~ Yes, you made a good guess. I would say that in writing this memoir Kamila is definitely trying to set the record straight. This was 1930's Beirut, so yeah, if she felt compelled to leave her marital home, there is no way in hell they would allow the kids to go with her. But then again, most women in the '30's just learned to suck it up and very few had the guts to make changes in their lives. Kamila was a rare one and that is what makes her memoir such a pleasure to read.

I hope that when work settles down you have the opportunity to read it Sanj!

Sanjay said...

Thank you for the response Lotus, and telling me about the timeframe. I knew it was a while back but not the 30s.
I do wonder why people want to be remembered a certain way when they are gone. I mean is there a consciousness post passing?
Not sure if that makes any sense.
I hope I get some reading time too, bit it seems doubtful.
Take care!

That sounds like a great book. Could I be in for the draw?

As for your question about how much art influences life, I am prone to think that it plays one of the most important roles in our lives. Of all our senses, we probably rely the most on our sight, and so imagery forms the biggest part of how we perceive our world. But imagery is only one part of art. So I tend to think that art and life are one and the same, almost.

Pirithous
Theseus and the Centaur by Antonio Canova

Theseus's best friend was Pirithous, prince of the Lapiths. Pirithous had heard stories of Theseus's courage and strength in battle but wanted proof, so he rustled Theseus's herd of cattle and drove it from Marathon, and Theseus set out in pursuit. Pirithous took up his arms and the pair met to do battle, but were so impressed with each other they took an oath of friendship and joined the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. In Iliad I, Nestor numbers Pirithous and Theseus "of heroic fame" among an earlier generation of heroes of his youth, "the strongest men that Earth has bred, the strongest men against the strongest enemies, a savage mountain-dwelling tribe whom they utterly destroyed." No trace of such an oral tradition, which Homer's listeners would have recognized in Nestor's allusion, survived in literary epic. Later, Pirithous was preparing to marry Hippodamia. The centaurs were guests at the wedding feast, but got drunk and tried to abduct the women, including Hippodamia. The Lapiths won the ensuing battle.

In Ovid's Metamorphoses Theseus fights against and kills Eurytus, the "fiercest of all the fierce centaurs"[15] at the wedding of Pirithous and Hippodamia.
Theseus and Pirithous: the abduction of Helen and encounter with Hades
Theseus carries off the willing Helen, on an Attic red-figure amphora, ca. 510 BCE

Theseus, a great abductor of women, and his bosom companion, Pirithous, since they were sons of Zeus and Poseidon, pledged themselves to marry daughters of Zeus.[16] Theseus, in an old tradition,[17] chose Helen, and together they kidnapped her, intending to keep her until she was old enough to marry. Pirithous chose Persephone. They left Helen with Theseus's mother, Aethra at Aphidna, whence she was rescued by the Dioscuri.

On Pirithous' behalf they travelled to the underworld, domain of Persephone and her husband, Hades. Hades pretended to offer them hospitality and laid out a feast, but as soon as the two visitors sat down, they could not move. They were fastened to the chairs. They did not know where they were or why they were there. In fact, they forgot everything, because they sat on the Chairs of Forgetfulness.

When Heracles came into Hades for his twelfth task, he freed Theseus but the earth shook when he attempted to liberate Pirithous, and Pirithous had to remain in Hades for eternity. When Heracles had pulled Theseus from the chair where he was trapped, some of his thigh stuck to it; this explains the supposedly lean thighs of Athenians. When Theseus returned to Athens, he found that the Dioscuri had taken Helen and Aethra back to Sparta.
Hippolyta

Theseus, believed either to be in the company of Heracles, or of his own accord, had been on a quest in the land of the Amazons, a race of all-female warriors who reproduced with men for children (but killed off the males). Sensing no trouble or malice, the Amazons decided to openly welcome Theseus by having the queen, Hippolyta, go aboard his ship bearing gifts. After boarding the ship, Theseus left to Athens, claiming Hippolyta as his own bride. This sparked a war between the Amazons and the Athenians. Hippolyta eventually bore a son for Theseus, whom they named Hippolytus (Ἱππόλυτος). Theseus lost his love for Hippolyta, however, once he had cast his eye on Phaedra .

Plutarch's Life places Hyppolyte's Amazonian sister, Antiope, as the Amazonian kidnapped by Theseus. In this account, Antiope is the mother of Hyppolytus (named after her sister).

Minature games, olympic pallas games and a wedding for the King god of hearos.

An answer to the question of the ship is it depends what you are refering to as the frame of the question one is answering.. Ultimately the form of the ship is still the same ship no matter how many parts have been changed on it, the ship not only is called the same ship but it also changed within the frame of being that one ship. Conversly if one was refering to the parts of the ship as the newness then the new parts would costitute a new ship of the form of the same ship. Thus structurally everything was eventually new on the same ship and thus at this level it is a new ship.
Evebn if part of the structure was the same and part was not both clauses above answer the same question by the same way and yet disperingly in the like manner.
It answewrs all three sides not just two, the someone was the first to ever answer it fully and thus eliminating the paradox as a beyond glory or doxa.

This is the question the someone answered Kotien to help impress him to offer the fruit of knowledge.

In the first tale of the Minataure King minos the Crecian had seveb sons and sent the oldest who represented the seven to athens for the pan athenian games which were a peaceful athletic game based on hercules. In fact they were bassed on the games hercules was inspired by created by king Pallas. The Pallatines are said to have assasinated Androgeus, though he had competed very well. The assination was the truphy of the peaceful unity between Pallas , athens and Crete. Assasinating can mean like Kane and able a unity between the two making a blood sacrifice to unify them. Moreover as assasins are hash eaters born after alexander the great a ritual elluding to them in similarity might have been used. The may have cut him or blessed him by smoke or by blood letting. The kane ritual comes to mind as later 7 males and seven females would leave for minos every jubulee or great year which is seven solar years. The seven sons were adopted by athens abnd assinated from thier clan and the sons and daughters sent were return gifts of equal stature, its like giving your first born in exchange for a first born to bind peoples together This was before the minataure.the Labyrinth created by Daedalus housed the minature or the werecow and was the symbol of Crete. It was the labaro and was symbolised by the two headed axe. The cretians use to jump over bulls as an athletic event, taking them by the horns as the charged and fliping over them. This was the even of the minatuare that devoired the athenians. as the olympic games were substututes for real war meant to create peace so was the maze or corn festival of cretian athletic events. Theseus went to the games on the third time they were help, they were held every 9 years and thus every 64 years the two events would coincide.
Theseus went to redeam the athenians who had not won at this event to prove himself as equal to the eldest som of Minos who had beaten the athenians at thier own events. As with the athenian games no real weapon was used against each other. sailing with a black mast theseus' ship left and he promised to put a white sail up if he suceeded in beating the minatuare game Ariadne, King Minos' daughter fell in love with theseus and gave him a ball of string tied together like the gordian knot that alexander the great cut with a sword proving he would unify the world as a worrior philosopher king. The games in minos were both fpor men and women and prior to the bull games the cretians practiced the same pan athenian games in crete. Seven was the number of the team of athletes So Theseus won the games by unifying with the princess who told him how to win. The string is the wedding vow and the secrets of her people, the maze was both the place of the event and also the secrets of crete. She told him face the bull forward , down but do not verre or the horns might stabb you. the pricesses names means Goddess marked, It was a spear or rod in some interpretations. The string representyed the knowledge necessary to gain authority in crete and marry her. The door to the ancient maze like knowledge was opened and the string of her lessons helped him navagate it to the heart of its authority and yes also win the event. As promised theseus took Deadilus home as wife. When theseus got to the heart of crete those holding authority there held struggle with him yet his power and strength thanks to his wife over powered them and he won her hand in marriage by gaining the authority with her In fact , the maze represented the the mze of things theseus needed to do the gain authentic rite of authority to unify athens and crete as equals.

He took the cretian head of authority by cutting it at the throat which also means he spoke for them based on the authority he gained by the riituals he completed.
" stabbed the beast in the throat with his sword (according to one scholium, Theseus strangled it on Pindar's Fifth Nemean Ode.).[13]
Theseus used his fathers authority as thw sword that helped him take the head of the minataure . this metaphor is obviuous based on the fact that all weapons were confiscated before leaving athens, thus this sword was the symbol of the authority it represented not the physical weapon that sygnified it.
After decapitating the beast,"Theseus also silenced or strangled all opposition by taking the head of cretes authority legitamately. The string was also what was necessary to allow for him to return free of the burdens of running crete. Theseus managed to escape with all of the young Athenians and Ariadne as well as her younger sister Phaedra.

Theseus was granted an island with his wife Ariadne who represented that unity , the island was Naxos. Thus Ariadne was Deadilus married to Theseus. Deadilus was also the title of the matriarchal contigent of crete though her real name was Ariadne. Thus the women of crete wanted Theseus to win. It was a marriage not just with the men through a daughter but one with the Mothers and women of the island as equals as well. The true authority of the cretiqans was only attainable by seeing men and women as equals though both the men and women had rituals that made it like a maze to get through.

In other versions of the story, the god Dionysus appeared to Theseus and told him that he had already chosen Ariadne for his bride, and to abandon her on Naxos, a favorite island. Ariadne then cursed Theseus to forget to change the black sail to white. Seeing a black sail, Theseus' father Aegeus committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea (hence named Aegean). Theseus and the other Athenian youths returned safely. Theseus returned safely back as a king of heroes

It was said that dyabysus was the god of the blessing of thier union esp as he was worshiped by the Minoans as the had a large fleet. The island was a paradise and blessed for being so favoured. The favour also refers to it being a prime dowery for thier wedding. She blessed him with a cursing to bare the black clothes of high authority and not just the white clothes of someone who tried to win the heart and head of authority but failed. So his father seeing this decided it was timew to succeed the throne to theseus and the two great powers sharing the sea Noxos was in named the sea after the father. Theseus returned as the King of heroes a title of his superiority or a mighty man of renowned
the sea os still called the Aegean after his dad.
His wife was of course the goddess and origin of all nations born onto them. A example of goddess authority that unified these people and made them both great.

uxsqus U canPolitics, uxsqus U can. theseus ship, paradox and minitaurs

Ship of Theseus

According to Plutarch's Life of Theseus, the ship Theseus used on his return to Athens was kept in the Athenian harbor as a memorial for several centuries.

The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus,[14] for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their place...

The ship had to be maintained in a seaworthy state, for it annually carried the Athenian envoys to the festival of Apollo at Delos.

As the wood of the ship wore out or rotted and was replaced, it was unclear to philosophers how much of the original ship actually remained, giving rise to the philosophical question whether it should be considered "the same" ship or not. Such philosophical questions about the nature of identity are sometimes referred to as the Ship of Theseus Paradox.

For Athenians, the preserved ship kept fresh their understanding that Theseus had been an actual, historic figure, which none then doubted.

this is the basis of a question Kotien the adam hashum asked as his heart kardif rose to fair
for they ate the poison together by rite of love marriage passage.
hers was the fig.
inotaur
Theseus and the Minotaur on 6th-century black-figure pottery

Pasiphae, wife of King Minos of Crete, had several children before the minotaur. The eldest of these, Androgeus, set sail for Athens to take part in the Pan-Athenian games which were held there every five years. Being strong and skillful, he did very well, winning some events outright. He soon became a crowd favorite, much to the resentment of the Pallantides, sons of Pallas and nephews of King Aegeus, who were then living at the royal court in the sanctuary of Delphic Apollo,[10] and they assassinated him, incurring the wrath of Minos.

When King Minos had heard of what befell his son, he ordered the Cretan fleet to set sail for Athens. Minos asked Aegeus for his son's assassins, and if they were to be handed to him, the town would be spared. However, not knowing who they were, King Aegeus surrendered the whole town to Minos' mercy. His retribution was that, at the end of every Great Year (seven solar years), the seven most courageous youths and the seven most beautiful maidens were to board a boat and be sent as tribute to Crete, never to be seen again.

In another version, King Minos of Crete had waged war with the Athenians and was successful. He then demanded that, at nine-year intervals, seven Athenian boys and seven Athenian girls were to be sent to Crete to be devoured by the Minotaur, a half-man, half-bull monster that lived in the Labyrinth created by Daedalus.

On the third occasion, Theseus volunteered to slay the monster. He took the place of one of the youths and set off with a black sail, promising to his father, Aegeus, that if successful he would return with a white sail.[11] Like the others, Theseus was stripped of his weapons when they sailed. On his arrival in Crete, Ariadne, King Minos' daughter, fell in love with Theseus and, on the advice of Daedalus, gave him a ball of thread. This was so he could find his way out of the Labyrinth.[12] That night, Ariadne escorted Theseus to the Labyrinth, and Theseus promised that if he returned from the Labyrinth he would take Ariadne with him. As soon as Theseus entered the Labyrinth, he tied one end of the ball of string to the door post and brandished his sword which he had kept hidden from the guards inside his tunic. Theseus followed Daedalus' instructions given to Ariadne; go forwards, always down and never left or right. Theseus came to the heart of the Labyrinth and also upon the sleeping Minotaur. The beast awoke and a tremendous fight then occurred. Theseus overpowered the Minotaur with his strength and stabbed the beast in the throat with his sword (according to one scholium, Theseus strangled it on Pindar's Fifth Nemean Ode.).[13]

After decapitating the beast, Theseus used the string to escape the Labyrinth and managed to escape with all of the young Athenians and Ariadne as well as her younger sister Phaedra. On the return journey Theseus abandoned Ariadne on the island of Naxos. In other versions of the story, the god Dionysus appeared to Theseus and told him that he had already chosen Ariadne for his bride, and to abandon her on Naxos, a favorite island. Ariadne then cursed Theseus to forget to change the black sail to white. Seeing a black sail, Theseus' father Aegeus committed suicide by throwing himself into the sea (hence named Aegean). Theseus and the other Athenian youths returned safely. Theseus returned safely back as a king of heroes.

Ship of Theseus

According to Plutarch's Life of Theseus, the ship Theseus used on his return to Athens was kept in the Athenian harbor as a memorial for several centuries.

The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus,[14] for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and stronger timber in their place...

The ship had to be maintained in a seaworthy state, for it annually carried the Athenian envoys to the festival of Apollo at Delos.

As the wood of the ship wore out or rotted and was replaced, it was unclear to philosophers how much of the original ship actually remained, giving rise to the philosophical question whether it should be considered "the same" ship or not. Such philosophical questions about the nature of identity are sometimes referred to as the Ship of Theseus Paradox.

For Athenians, the preserved ship kept fresh their understanding that Theseus had been an actual, historic figure, which none then doubted.

this is the basis of a question Kotien the adam hashum asked as his heart kardif rose to fair
for they ate the poison together by rite of love marriage passage.
hers was the fig.
inotaur
Theseus and the Minotaur on 6th-century black-figure pottery

Pasiphae, wife of King Minos of Crete, had several children before the minotaur. The eldest of these, Androgeus, set sail for Athens to take part in the Pan-Athenian games which were held there every five years. Being strong and skillful, he did very well, winning some events outright. He soon became a crowd favorite, much to the resentment of the Pallantides, sons of Pallas and nephews of King Aegeus, who were then living at the royal court in the sanctuary of Delphic Apollo,[10] and they assassinated him, incurring the wrath of Minos.

When King Minos had heard of what befell his son, he ordered the Cretan fleet to set sail for Athens.

Theseus and medus medea one marathon and attica to argos.

When Theseus arrived at Athens, he did not reveal his true identity immediately. Aegeus gave him hospitality but was suspicious of the young, powerful stranger's intentions. Aegeus's wife Medea recognized Theseus immediately as Aegeus' son and worried that Theseus would be chosen as heir to Aegeus' kingdom instead of her son Medus. She tried to arrange to have Theseus killed by asking him to capture the Marathonian Bull, an emblem of Cretan power.http://wiki.ask.com/Theseus

now tackanother step back and look at the new info on Medea the wifpt

now she wants her son to be king of athens as if she did not learm her lesson from before.
she turned and link
Theseus with her boy medeas and sent Theseus to take her symbol of aithority through jher with her as the bull of marathonos and the race of the same name. its a wedding pace race and place, its a tie between minoa and athens through medea, its in attica chory
this is a matriarch whose people theseus found on the way to sacrifice himself and link to the bull, she blessed him after receieving it as she promised when she met him, she did this and died with it as it represented her authority, she was nthm get me, two dragons as friends and theseus the fourth as fair, medus kanees vand abelotic dress. zorgor read as hera cat ;love zorb.

Meaning Medus was unified to Theseus and theseus as both went to aiuthenticate their authority in argos and through medea to meneo greece mainland there merathone the bull of its authority there as medeas son melded but was released from theseus as a god and you will see how they are equal obne as two but many as he became a cobra head to teh dragon of the peoples and authority represemted by the twins seen as theseus and medus ib this allience

On the way to Marathon, Theseus took shelter from a storm in the hut of an ancient woman named Hecale. She swore to make a sacrifice to Zeus if Theseus were successful in capturing the bull. Theseus did capture the bull, but when he returned to Hecale's hut, she was dead. In her honor Theseus gave her name to one of the demes of Attica, making its inhabitants in a sense her adopted children. ibid
Mareathone is a

e name. its a wedding pace race and place, its a tie between minoa and athens through medea, its in attica chory
this is a matriarch whose people theseus found on the way to sacrifice himself and link to the bull, she blessed him after receieving it as she promised when she met him, she did this and died with it as it represented her authority, she was nthm get me, two dragons as friends and theseus the fourth as fair, medus kanees vand abelotic dress. zorgor read as hera cat ;love zorb.
Zorhb said:

who zethes 35

Ok the with is the matriarch who is killed as kane was sacrificed to union by the slaying blessed by the rite of the authority through Zues.
Thus reeicieving the monoa authity trumped her but her was blessed as an equal ahead of time fully authenticating Theseus hold on the authentic authority of Attica and marathone.

more entraces or passages to the underworld.

by valpetridis @ 2011-04-16 – 02:52:04

Cercyon, king at the holy site of Eleusis, was a wressler and challenged anyone going by to a wressle match. Wessling was a sport practiced in the olympids. Thus this king was a hercules and chose peaceful ways to prove who wqas stonger. However he would kill the weaker person and only theseus proved himself stronger to kill this king. The city was aholy site and sounds like the elysium fields. As it was aholy place one might ask why was it holy if people killed each other. In the olympics like in war medals are given for the victor who vanquished his foes. So the winner kills the enemy in a war that is holy peacefula and fun, plus you can put bets on it, The olympics as you recall are a holy ritual or event that was meant to bring people together and do it peacefully . It used skills of war or athletely learned ones as athletic compititions to prove one strong as alexander the great meant and gave his four strongest pasrt of his empire to govern in the west. Yes it was based on compition olympic style. Thus the one who wins won a medal and called the victory killing the foe. It was this compition that unified these people as was meant by hercules ritual/Category: Populated places in the West Attica Prefecture

This category contains only the following file.

From as early as 1700 BC up to the 4th century AD, Eleusina was the site of the Eleusinian Mysteries, or the Mysteries of Demeter and Kore. These Mysteries revolved around a belief that there was a hope for life after death for those who were initiated. Such a belief was cultivated from the introduction ceremony in which the hopeful initiates were shown a number of things including the seed of life in an ear of corn. The Mysteries are attributed to Demeter and her daughter Kore, or Persephone, and were created while Demeter searched for her lost daughter who had been abducted by Hades.http://wiki.ask.com/Theseus

a seed in the ear of the corn is a kernell in the seed that is heard as a lesson but is of teh maze or xorn that is the minature, which is also a double headed axe. The maze is teh oil or sed gained from many lessons as it a sed from teh same ear of korn or same type of seed, many as one or one as many if teh ear is teh seed made from one equally many, or one as many.

formulas of Frazer's The Golden Bough, Cercyon was a one year king who used athletic events He di battle for his life and teh good of his kingdom, succeeding his throne to teh winner, well for one year. He di this ritual for the good of his kingdomas it was an annual ritual there, or a ritual. The victor who triumphants becomes king for that year, like an election won by compitition. thus there were many Cercyons who win , even in round abouts sets bassed on succession and love. Some use king for a day in the same way and teh compition of athletes as was teh case with hercules was also polotical, a bueaty show and compition based on wisdom and so on. Theseus overturned this archaic religious rite by refusing to be sacrificed. Thus this thezseus did not compete in the rite that was also religious. He did not become theseus as in greek theseus means sacrifice. However he may have competed winning rather than losing as the way to turn over like a wressler the ritual and thus become king for a year, however rrather he unified his people with this kingdom and did not sit on the thronme sacrficing his time only there as he had to proveed to athens.

Finally as you notice each time I have opened the same site more versions of teh same story appears

plain of Eleusi next to the site of the same name that is also the site in the previous story. The king had twio beds that no one could fit not even if perfectly six feet. Thus he wouldcit you down to size or strech you to fit one bed but even he could not do teh otehr without fitting one bed first and then either cutting or streching you to teh otehr which includes using the cut off parts as a fit. You cut off legs becoming stilts.
but the king was of the holy seed or maze corn so he either humbled you to size on one ned or streched you to grandure if you were smaller than he. One bed humbles and the other makes one convienced of ther greatness. Conceit means seeded together or suceeded, success is conceit as its opposite of humbleness wich is sacrife as succeeding the point to the other or victory. But tioo win this aas theseus did it is doing as the king did withour killing any one. One could put both beds together and lay diagnolayy in one to the foot of teh otehr and fill both beds top to bottom. Theseus did both strech the king as he was streched and cut him down as the king did but he also layed diagnoally on both as already said and thus won the kings game hands down.

call these rituals ways to gain the authority of eachh ruler to become authentically represented by thier authority as a legitimation of their authorty on the road to hochiming or teh ascention to athens for tehseus. each road led to the next as banckock began from honchoy.

Near Megara an elderly robber named Sciron

Megara (Greek: Μέγαρα) is an ancient city (pop. 23,032 in 2001) in Attica, Greece. It lies in the northern section of the Isthmus of Corinth opposite the island of Salamis, which belonged to Megara in archaic times, before being taken by Athens. Megara was one of the four districts of Attica, embodied in the four mythic sons of King Pandion II, of whom Nisos was the ruler of Megara. Megara was also a trade port, its people using their ships and wealth as a way to gain leverage on armies of neighboring poleis. Megara specialized in the exportation of wool and other animal products including livestock such as horses. It possessed two harbors, Pegae, to the west on the Corinthian Gulf and Nisaea, to the east on the Saronic Gulf of the Aegean Sea.

At the first site, which was Epidaurus, sacred to Apollo and the healer Aesculapius, Theseus turned the tables on the chthonic bandit, the "clubber" Periphetes, who beat his opponents into the Earth, and took from him the stout staff that often identifies Theseus in vase-paintings. At the time, Theseus was called the Mother Dog for many reasons. think knights who heal the light

[edit] Notes

1. ^ a b c d e f ‹γ›, ‹κ›, ‹χ›, ‹γγ›, ‹γκ›, ‹γχ› represent palatal [ʝ c ç ɲɟ ɲç] only before the front vowels [i] and [e]. The velar and palatal series series are sometimes analyzed as allophones of a single dorsal series.
2. ^ Also may have been /zd/.
3. ^ a b [ʎ] and [ɲ] are usually analysed as clusters of /li/ and /ni/ respectively, and are also spelled accordingly in Greek orthography. Palatalized pronunciation presupposes the presence of yet another vowel after the palatalized consonant and its following /i/. If there is no subsequent second vowel, palatalization does not occur.
4. ^ May be a tap [ɾ] intervocalically.
5. ^ May have been /rʰ/.
6. ^ ‹σ› represents [z] before [b v m r ɣ] eg: Σμήνος [ˈzminos]
7. ^ a b c d e f g h γκ, μπ, ντ usually represent [ŋg~ɲɟ mb nd] when found in the middle of a Greek word, [g~ɟ b d] when found in any foreign word or in the beginning of the a Greek one. eg: αμπέλι [amˈbeli], μπαμπάς {{IPA[baˈbas]}}
8. ^ The large number of mergers into Modern Greek /i/ is called Iotacism.
9. ^ Letters normally representing /i/ can also indicate a palatal pronunciation of dorsal consonants when appearing before other vowels: i.e instead of velar [ɣ k x ɡ], palatal [ʝ c ç ɟ] occur (eg: γιαγιά [ʝaˈʝa], κιόλας [ˈcolas], χιόνι [ˈçoni], μαγκιά [maˈɟa]. A similar process has a palatal fricative follow other consonants; [ʝ] follows voiced consonants [v b d ð z r] (eg: χέρια [ˈcerʝa], βαριέμαι [varˈʝeme]) and [ç follows voiceless consonants [f p θ t s ts] (eg: καρφιά [karfˈça], ποιος [pços], ρεβύθια [reˈviθça]). Similarly [ɲ] follows [m] under similar situations (eg: μια [mɲa], καλαμιά [kalaˈmɲa]
10. ^ When following a vowel, ‹υ› represents a pronunciation with [f] before ‹θ›, ‹κ›, ‹ξ›, ‹π›, ‹σ›, ‹τ›, ‹φ›, ‹χ›, ‹ψ›, and a pronunciation with [v] elsewhere.

Near Megara an elderly robber named Sciron forced travellers along the narrow cliff-face pathway to wash his feet. While they knelt, he kicked them off the cliff behind them, where they were eaten by a sea monster (or, in some versions, a giant turtle). Theseus pushed him off the cliff.http://wiki.ask.com/Theseus

Sciron was from new magara and not of athens. It was the Magar area of hunland, gumagaria, Hungaria. in this tale the magar washes your feet in the dunube, like hisler of hindus who stood in the waters.
The washing of feet forces you to humble yourself as a servant might. to clean of the sut of the feet that had walked the narrow path to its authority. The narrow path was to lead to the giant turtles of islands far flung or to sea monsters with seven heads rising in the west. which really is east of you go the other way. The way was to narrow made that way for no one to win cause asked to bow you would have failed , not doing so before that. To wash his feet you must buck his heart and prove yourself equal with no more than a martial arts bow, one of priestly equalityy, they both knee as equals or shoukld, but if the wscyron
Magaria was mania to be equal to wash each otehrs feet as equal to allow it to be devoired by the writs of the west
cause this means Magaria was mania
and on;;ly a true equa;l could win the heart of its people usurping authority as the otehr flees middle earth west ward and allows the new equal, the next us, the nexus have authority as the,m.

* Another of these enemies was Cercyon, king at the holy site of Eleusis, who challenged passers-by to a wrestling match and, when he had beaten them, killed them. Theseus beat Cercyon at wrestling and then killed him instead. In interpretations of the story that follow the formulas of Frazer's The Golden Bough, Cercyon was a "year-King", who was required to do annual battle for his life, for the good of his kingdom, and was succeeded by the victor. Theseus overturned this archaic religious rite by refusing to be sacrificed.

* The last bandit was Procrustes, the Stretcher, who had two beds, one of which he offered to passers-by in the plain of Eleusis. He then made them fit into it, either by stretching them or by cutting off their feet. Since he had two beds of different lengths, no one would fit. Theseus turned the tables on Procrustes, although it is not said whether he cut Procrustes to size or stretched him to fit.

Each of these sites was a very sacred place already of great antiquity when the deeds of Theseus were first attested in painted ceramics, which predate the literary texts. Ibid from citing above.

. The terms are universal ideologies, or ideals that signify the abstraction of its referents, though they are used to also signify particulars. Words are used to interpret the abstraction of the points or stars into constellations or abstractions that are in themselves points that are similarly unencompassable by the ideology or code, be it language that one interprets into a constellation or idea. Thus the perception of a point in the constellation and the abstraction of said constellation into a point or idea are represented equally by codes such as language. Thus thinking in constellations is thinking with said ideas of abstraction and points, as ideas, in mind. Thus being able to put ideas together, deconstruct them and delineate the character of the ideas abstracted as a whole or parts is the logos of logos that Socrates outlines in the Theatetus, or the proof of knowing the proof by which something is as compared to what it is not. Thinking in constellations is in part using language to attack the primacy of language with knowledge concerning the entire mechanism by which said perceptions, interpretations and abstractions exist and function.

The terms used to signify said light is the encoded terms both based on custom and the system that is used to make said interpretations. The interpretation is not reflective of the term that must be realised as polemically opposite to the sameness that allows for the interpretation of said points as separate points though they are unified based on a negative or positive dialectic

During the period of, time when this experiment was conducted, the researcher used traditional content analysis techniques to examine one thousand eight hundred ninety-six (1896) incident reports as an attempt to understand the different response rates of the police. The study concluded with two major findings: that the most common complaints experienced by non-heterosexual individuals dealt with inadequate response by the police, and that a number of individuals suffered further victimization when interacting with law enforcement officials.

SOC202 - Popular Culture

March 20 2010

Contemporary society is the domain of life in a modern culture that is riddled with increasing technology and rapid opportunities. Society is plagued with the fever of constantly being saturated with advertisements. In today’s modern culture, advertisements help convince the population into buying commodities that will change their current identity into the identity of the person that is plastered on the advertisement of a particular commodity. Due to living in a society that presents a various selection of commodities to choose from, advertisers use alternative methods to sell their products through advertisements, such as, using a well recognized celebrity to represent their product in order to gain more public attention. An additional strategy used by advertisers to enhance the profitability of their products is that they use thin, sexy, and glamorous female models attempting to communicate to the public that, if one desires to be like the model presented on the advertisement, one must have this product. The ideas of culture, sexuality, gender are used to augment the imagined desirability connected to the intended impressions of said divertissements advertising.

Often times, advertisers create false illusions and mythologies concerning their products will transform one into a glamorous, sexy and desirable person just as it portrays in the advertisement. Thus, this essay will analyze the mythologies that are used by advertisers to present an illusion that anyone can be glamorous and beautiful to convince consumers to purchase their products. In addition, this essay will explore the different social classes that are represented through the distribution of these ads and as well as, the different roles of sex and gender that are reflected upon these ads.

The majority of the ads found in magazines are attempting to communicate their products with society by representing them by words, images, and facial gestures. Advertisers want the public to be aware of their product and they use sings as a form of that communication, “Sings are the fundamental units of communication,” (O’Brien & Szeman, 2010). In regards to the first ad, advertisers are promoting Olay facial cleansers by using words and images to ensure that their product gets sold. Around the advertisement there are a number of wording phrases that try to manipulate the consumer to purchasing their product.

By purchasing this product, the product in return is suppose to offer the consumer beautiful and “glamming” skin as it is printed on the advertisements. Additional phrases that are placed through the outline of the ad are attempt to enhance the illusion that if one uses this particular facial cleanser it will make them feel good and clean just like the women who is featured on the ad. In addition, the woman who is featured on the ad presents flawless skin with a natural complexion. In addition, the female in the ad is portrayed as young, glamorous and beautiful creating the mythology that the only way to a flawless and natural complexion is through the use of this product.

Furthermore, this product is targeted towards both middle and lower class because the brand identity of this product is more cost efficient to purchase by the average consumer rather then a person from the upper class that maybe use to purchasing higher cost brands of cleansers. Due to the fact that this product is less expensive then some of the top brands, advertisers are using a high paid actress and song writer, Carrie Underwood to promote their product to give off an image that it can be afforded by the middle and lower class even though she possesses a higher social status in society. This ad is communicating its product mainly through word phrases attempting to create a solution to unwanted dirty and oily skin by using the Olay cleansing product care.

Many advertisers use extremely thing models that are giving off a false impression that everyday people can resemble the appearance they see in the ad. Most of the women who are featured on these ads are portray false images of beauty because they have a number of professionals perfecting their beauty to become beautiful and glamorous. Advertisers want people to buy their products and the place superficial beautiful women on the cover of the ad to gains one interest in the product they are promoting. In relation to the second ad that is being used in this essay, it is portraying a beautiful young blonde, with soft features who appears to be a successful younger woman representing an expensive named brand purse.

The woman in the ad is presented as tall and thin wearing an outfit that reveals her flawless complexion and her slim physique. In addition, the model is featured with a big cut down her chest and posses a facial gesture with her mouth slightly opened and staring into the distance. This type of body language is suggesting that although the model in the ad is attempting to promote the sells of this designer bag, she is positioned in a sexual manner to peek consumer’s interest into purchasing this product. Based on article by Reichert he expresses that, “advertisers use sexual information to influence brand perceptions,” (Reichert, 2002). Like many of the women that are featured in magazine ads sexuality is communicated through facial gestures, body language and by poses in order to enhance the product they want to sell. There are different ways that both men and women interpret these ads that may affect the production sales of these products.

In their study, Lonis and Covell (1995) found that advertising that uses direct images of the product rather then stereo-type female models, it rates well with male and female consumers. These types of advertisements rate better then ones that use women. Amongst the advertisings that use female models ones that portray a strong dominate male reality rate higher then simply ones that do not or show the male in subersevanient position. Although sex images sell, consumers prefer to view ads that advertise the direct product. This type of negative feedback affects the profits of the advertisers and therefore attempt to create illusions and mythologies around their products to attract more buyers. In a second study conducted by Jaideep and Darren (2008) found similarities results to Lonis and Covell’s research study and concluded that, both men and women react negatively to the sexual appeals in advertisings. Both genders expressed negative emotions towards such as because that ads present perceptions of lacking ethnicity and appear to be manipulative (Darren & Jaideep, 2008).

The last ad for this essay focuses on a popular alcohol drink, Nuvo. The ad is attempting to sell of the image that this product is targeted for women. The drink is placed in a feminine type figure bottle with pink and crystal decorations. Furthermore, the ad is represented by a very famous, glamorous female celebrity, Eva Longira Parker, who appears to be enjoying herself at some type of entertainment party and consuming this alcohol beverage which what appears to her liking. This advertisement has a logo placed at the top calming to “Be Glamorous” creating the illusion that if one especially women, desire to be glamorous the must purchase this product of alcohol. By placing such a widely respect celebrity consumers will begin to consider these miss perceptions and myths surrounding the ad because the celebrity on the ad confirms the fact that this product will work to make one become glamorous.
In a study conducted in China, researcher found that consumers begin to be interested in purchasing products based on the popularity of the celebrity, “Celebrities make consumers interested in the products because of their popularity,”(Beijing Review, 2010). The article states the fact that, advertisers make celebrities accountable when the products they are promoting are apart of deceptive advertisements, (Beijing Review, 2010). In relation to the study performed by the Beijing Review, an additional study was carried out by Pringle and Binet, they protest that using celebrities to represent a product, “Sets this particular creative technique in context,”(Binet & Pringle, 2005), but also increase their profit sales and demonstrates the significance on their return on investment, (Binet & Pringle, 2005). Celebrities create a number of ways to attract one to purchase a product based on their popular status in society and their glamorous beauty. Celebrities create additional fabrication and myths concerning products stating that these products to transform one into be glamorous, sexy, thin, etc…

In conclusion, I have shown that contemporary society is the domain of living in a modern culture that is riddled with increasing technology and rapid opportunities. Society has be shown to be plagued with the fever of constantly being saturated with advertisements. In today’s modern culture, advertisements help convince the population into buying commodities in hopes that it will change their current identity into the identity of the person that is plastered on the advertisement of a particular commodity. As proven due to living in a society that presents a various selection of commodities to choose from, advertisers use alternative methods to sell their products through advertisements, such as, using a well recognized celebrity to represent their product in order to gain more public attention. From Oil de olay to Bottega Veneta to Niva many ads play of the illusions and ideas concerning sexuality in modern society to create an impression that is the image they felt could sell their product that day. Though sexual dominance works ion the few males who feel inferior, the actual product is s the true selling point as to the desire that motivates people to buy such products. It has been shown that advertising uses strategy to enhance the profitability of their products is that they use thin, sexy, and glamorous female models attempting to communicate to the public that, if one desires to be like the model presented on the advertisement, one must have this product. The ideas of culture, sexuality, gender are used to augment the imagined desirability connected to the intended impressions of said divertissements advertising.

Abstract:
Abstract: This research investigates differences and similarities between men and women in their spontaneous reactions to gratuitous sexual appeals in advertising. Earlier research suggests that both males and females will react negatively to such ads because of perceptions of unethicality, manipulativeness, etc. However, we hypothesize and find that, under the sort of constrained processing conditions that allow the elicitation of spontaneous, gut-level reactions, men on average will exhibit a more positive attitudinal response to gratuitous sex appeals than women (Experiments 1 and 2). Experiment 3 then provides support for the underlying process – and also demonstrates intragender variation—by showing that women with more liberal attitudes to sex per se react in a manner very similar to men; namely, they report more liking for a sexual ad than a nonsexual ad.

(1) Abstract
While the power of advertisements has long been known, investigations of sociocultural influences on sexual attitudes have been limited primarily to studies of sexually aggressive media. In this study we examined the effects on sexual attitudes of different portrayals of women in advertisements. Male and female white middle-class university students were exposed to one of three groups of advertisements. In one condition women were depicted as sex objects, in another in progressive or role-reversed roles, and a third condition comprised product oriented advertisements containing no human figures. Sexual attitudes were assessed using four subscales of Burt's Sexual Attitude Survey of 1980, a measure of attitudes believed to be rape-supportive, and conducive to sexual aggression against women. Before completing the Survey, subjects rated a series of advertisements on appeal and aesthetic dimensions. Whereas the product oriented advertisements were rated as more appealing than those featuring female figures, analyses showed that males exposed to the sex-object advertisements significantly more accepting of rape-supportive attitudes, and females exposed to the progressive female images were less accepting of such attitudes than were controls.

(2)- Abstract
The first part of this paper summarises the key points about the use of celebrities in advertising, sets this particular creative technique in context and demonstrates how significant its return on investment can be. In the second part the paper goes on to report a more detailed analysis of the ‘celebrity’ case histories among the winners in the IPA Effectiveness Awards, and how practitioners have applied celebrity use to brands to make exceptional impacts on profitability.

John Kenneth Galbraith seems tame. He only
accuses advertising of creating desires that
otherwise would not exist and of manipulating
consumers into buying unneeded new brands of
breakfast cereal and laundry detergent (11:124-
26).
Advertising is the most visible
manifestation of capitalism
Advertising, these critics say, raises the
prices of products without adding corresponding
value; it encourages monopoly; it corrupts editors;
it foists inferior products on the unwittingly
helpless consumer; it makes people buy products
they don't need;

Medea’s cup unified with Pallas and Lycia.

Medea’s cup unified with Pallas and Lycia.

Medea was the sorceress who had killed the Jason's betrothed and her father. She escaped from Corinth, actually escaped the authority by unifying with Jason's betrothed and with the father. The sorceress had a cup and blood potion. Aegeus had a son of his own and Medea bore him one of union called Medus. Medus is the tie, the middle, the medi of ancient Athens. His name means with God or me Deas ( ea can sound like u) and was named to represent the holy sanctified reality of the unity that was truly blessed and good, he was named this to signify it and expose its truth for all time and posterity. He represented the middle between the alliance of Athens and Corinth. Ger surrogacy was one as the king was married to Theseus' mother. Hearing of Theseus fame he was invited by Aegeus to a divine feast. The story tells of one son but her two are one. Theseus was named as Aegeus' son and Medus was by surrogacy also one. Aegeus did not know Theseus was his son. So Medea asked Aegeus to poison Theseus and kill him as she did those in Corinth. As Theseus began to drink the poison or holy cup, her venom known as her blood and body Aegeus recognised the sword of authority and hit the cup from his hands to create a unity. Three did stand in a feast of God(s) and unified as four. Cause the unity that bore Medus made the compact complete. She left by escaping Athens to Corinth once more. Aegeus had suffered a lot of rebellion since he drove out sons of Metions, with the help of his brothers.

Lycia was a region of southern Asia Minor, east of Caria. Several different tribes resided in Lycia; these included the Milyans or Solymi. To gain authority in Lycia Aegeus ubified his people with the Metions sons Pallas and Lycus. The Pallas had fifty sons known as the Pallantids. Unified with them he drove Lycus to his kingdom Lycia. He created using their father’s authority a kingdom for the people represented by Lycus unifying all the Lycian tribes into one people and allying all of them with Athens. Theseus during the battle of unification used the authority of Medea and killed by holy cup. Pallas and the fifty tribes he represented. These tribes were patriarchal yet like Theseus equal to a unity using the holy cup of Medea through his unity at the divine bunkmate. Lycia is named after Lycus.

Medeas cleansing poison and the cup of dragon power

Medea which means Me Dea with god. As you recall Andromeda means man with god, Dea is also Goddess. So Medea of Media the Median empire Left the palace on dragons for she was as powerful as she was always. her people that she represented had been using poisons and other substances to cause people to be confused so they would be blind to the poison used. Theseus father stopped his son of joining in that blood covenant that was her cup filled with poison, but truthfully Theseus was given a taste by her as she crept into his chambers to elate him. She put it in his mouth .

read ths and understand it was not Medea who allied who was poisoning people but the aids and others who from both sides needed to be cleansed. The poison was not Medea 's but hers was the antidote. when she left with power she blessed the kingdom and the clean way between their peoples. These were the results of the succession wars . the rebellions suffered by Theseus' line. the authority he gained from the peoples he passed on his way to Athens

"Aegeus had suffered from rebellion, since he began his rule after driving out the sons of Metions, with the help of his brothers, Pallas and Lycus. Pallas had fifty sons known as the Pallantids. With the help of his son, Aegeus drove out his brother Lycus to Lycia, in Asia Minor. In the fighting, Theseus killed Pallas and his sons."http://www.timelessmyths.com/classical/theseus.html
