 | | Helle fell into the eponymous Hellespont en route, but Phrixus reached Colchis, where he sacrificed the ram (its fleece was hung up in a sacred grove and guarded by an unsleeping serpent), and eventually married King Aeetes' daughter Chalciope, by whom he had four sons: Argus, Melas, Phrontis, and Kytissoros. |
