 | | 1213 BC - Theseus, legendary King of Athens, is deposed and succeeded by Menestheus, great-grandson of Erechtheus and second cousin of Theseus' father Aegeus. |
 | | The latter seeks refuge in Skyros, whose King Lycomedes is an old friend and ally. |
 | | Lycomedes, however, considers his visitor a threat to the throne and proceeds to assassinate him (though other accounts place these events a decade later, in the 1200s BC). |
