	The Children of Herakles
		While they were at Naupaktos Temenos’ brother Aristodemos died, struck by lightning, murdered by the sons of Pylades and Elektra, or shot by Apollo for failing to go to the oracle (since he had learned in a chance meeting with Herakles that the Herakleidai would successfully return to the Peloponnese).
		In the Spartan version reported by Herodotos, however, Aristodemos did not die but participated in the conquest of the Peloponnese, became king of Sparta, and was succeeded by his twin sons Eurysthenes and Prokles.
		Again the Spartans had to decide which one was older; watching Argeia closely they saw that she always washed and fed Eurysthenes first and they concluded correctly that this one must be older.
