	Neleus, Greek Mythology Link.
		Some have said that Neleus is son of Hippocoon 4, but others affirm that he was the son of Cretheus 1, son of Aeolus 1, son of Hellen 1, the eponym of the Hellenes, son of Deucalion 1, the man who survived the Flood.
		Tyro, who is said to have been brought up by Cretheus 1, fell in love with the river god Enipeus (a river in Thessaly), and as she came often to the waters of the river to chant her love, Poseidon, taking the form of the river, lay with her.
		However, this was of not avail to the woman, because Pelias 1, without a shadow of respect for the shrine, killed her on the altars, thus incurring the hate of the goddess, and setting up a firm base for his own destruction.

	Pelias 1, Greek Mythology Link.
		There is no agreement concerning the paternity of Pelias 1, for some say that his father was Cretheus 1 (the son of Aeolus 1, son of Hellen 1, son of Deucalion 1, the man who survived the Flood), whereas others assert that he was Poseidon.
		On the other hand, there is no controversy concerning his mother: she was Tyro, the daughter that Alcidice (daughter of Aleus, son of Aphidas 1, son of Arcas 1, son of Zeus and Callisto) bore to impious Salmoneus (another son of Aeolus 1), the founder of Elis.
		When Cretheus 1 died, Pelias 1 seized the throne, but feeling a certain unease, he consulted the oracle concerning the kingdom, being warned that his death was drawing near if a man arrived wearing only one sandal.
