	Catreus, Greek Mythology Link - www.maicar.com
		Catreus is also known for having given two of his daughters, Aerope 1 and Clymene 5, to the merchant and sailor Nauplius 1, to be sold in foreign lands.
		Yet the most interesting thing about Catreus is probably his funeral, which was celebrated in Crete at the time when the seducer Paris had come to Sparta to fetch the bride that was the bribe he had received on Mount Ida when he judged the three goddesses.
		And because Catreus was Menelaus' grandfather, the latter sailed to Crete to perform the obsequies, leaving Paris alone with Helen at his palace in Sparta.
