Aegimius

Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

The "Aegimius" (Ancient Greek: Αἰγίμιος, Aigimios) is a fragmentary Ancient Greek epic poem that was variously attributed to Hesiod or Cercops of Miletus during antiquity. The "Aegimius" of the title was surely the son of Dorus, but the surviving fragments have nothing to do directly with this figure, and, despite his status as title character, it cannot be inferred from the available evidence that the poem was primarily concerned with the Dorian king. Instead other myths, such as those concerning Io, Theseus, and the Golden Fleece, are found among the handful of fragments preserved in other ancient authors as quotations and paraphrases.
