 | | It was Zeus, they say, who instructed his son Iasion in the initiatory rite of the mysteries in Samothrace, the island in the northern Aegean Sea, and they add that Iasion was the first to initiate strangers into them. |
 | | Iasion is now among the stars; for some say that the constellation of the Twins (Gemini) shows Iasion and Triptolemus, the young man who received from Demeter wheat and a chariot of winged Dragons with which, flying through the sky, he sowed the whole inhabited earth. |
