	Britain.tv Wikipedia - Atreus
		In Greek mythology, King Atreus (Greek: Î‘ÏÏÎµÏÏ, AtreÃºs) ("fearless") of Mycenae was the son of Pelops and Hippodamia and father of Agamemnon and Menelaus.
		Atreus and his twin brother, Thyestes, were exiled by their father for having murdered their step-brother, Chrysippus in their desire for the throne of Olympia.
		She gave it to her lover, Thyestes (also Atreus' brother), who then convinced Atreus to agree that whoever had the lamb should be king.

	Atreus, Greek Mythology Link - www.maicar.com
		It is now told that Atreus once had vowed to sacrifice to Artemis the finest of his flocks; but when a golden lamb appeared, he forgot everything about his vow and, after choking the lamb, he hid it inside a box.
		Atreus agreed to this, believing he still had the golden lamb locked and safe, but instead it was Thyestes 1 who produced the lamb, becoming thereby king of Mycenae.
		After this bizarre family reunion, Aegisthus, bore the bloody sword to Atreus as an evidence of Thyestes 1's death; and later, while Atreus was sacrificing on the shore, Aegisthus slew him and restored his father to the throne, forcing Agamemnon and Menelaus to go into exile to the court of King Polyphides 1 of Sicyon.

	ClSt 200 - Greek Tragedy
		Atreus was the older and the more sensible choice, but Thyestes insisted that the new king should be the one to produce the fleece of a golden lamb.
		Atreus was delighted with these terms and agreed -- because he had a golden fleece hidden safely away (or so he thought).
		However, Atreus was certain that Zeus wanted him to be king, so he declared that as proof Zeus would make the sun rise in the west and set in the east the next day.

		One of the reasons that the delegates chose Atreus was because its capital, Atreus City, was one of the few cities that had not been planned; its sprawling, hillside neighborhoods seemed a pleasanter environment in which to locate a government than the austere cities of Oriente, Marik, or Regulus.

	The House of Atreus: Breaking Free of Family Curse and Conditioning by Tracy Marks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Atreus possessed a golden lamb, which he vowed to sacrifice to Artemis, but instead hid from her.
		Atreus however was furious at this brother for committing adultery with his wife, and plotted against him, inviting him to come to Mycenae under the pretext of a family reconciliation.
		Atreus then served Thyestes a sumptuous feast — which too late Thyestes learned consisted of his own beloved sons, cut up and boiled, and served as meat — just as Pelops had served his own son to the gods.

	The House of Atreus (Background Note) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The family of Atreus (father of Agamemnon and Menelaus) traces its origins back to Tantalus, king of Sipylos, a son of Zeus (famous for his eternal punishment in Hades, as described in the Odyssey, where he is always thirsty but can never drink, hence the origin of the word tantalizing).
		Atreus and Thyestes quarrelled (in some versions at the instigation of the god Hermes, father of Myrtilus, the charioteer killed by Pelops).
		The story of the House of Atreus, and particularly Orestes' and Electra's revenge for their father's murder, is one of the most popular and enduring of all Greek legends, a favourite among the classical tragedians and still very popular with modern playwrights (e.g., T. Eliot, Eugene O'Neill, Jean Paul Sartre).

	House of Atreus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The House of Atreus is a family in Greek mythology.
		No man of Atreus had ever done something so noble and 'neither he nor any descendant of his would ever again be driven into evil by the irresistible power of the past.' Orestes therefore ends the curse of the House of Atreus.
		Even then the story of the House of Atreus climaxes with the death of Iphigenia because her father, Agamemnon, tries to be greater than the god Artemis.

		[12] But Zeus sent Hermes to Atreus and told him to stipulate with Thyestes that Atreus should be king if the sun should go backward; and when Thyestes agreed, the sun set in the east; hence the deity having plainly attested the usurpation of Thyestes, Atreus got the kingdom and banished Thyestes.
		[14] But seeking by all means to pay Atreus out, Thyestes inquired of the oracle on the subject, and received an answer that it could be done if he were to beget a son by intercourse with his own daughter.
