	LAELAPS : Fabulous dog of Cephalus ; Greek mythology ; constellation Canis Major : LAILAPS
		Kephalos used the hound to hunt down the Teumessian Fox, a monstrous beast which was laying waist to the countryside of Thebes.
		However, the fox was destined never to be caught, and Zeus, pondering the dilemma of the uncatcheable fox being chased by an inescable hound, turned the pair to stone, or else placed them in the heavens as the Constellations Canis Major and Minor.
		When the Teumessian fox was sent as a punishment to the Thebans, to which they had to sacrifice a boy every month, and when Creon had requested Amphitryon to deliver the city of the monster fox, Cephalus sent out the dog Laelaps against the fox.

	TEUMESSIAN FOX : Giant fox of Teumessa ; Greek mythology : ALOPEX TEUMESIOS
		Zeus faced with a contradiction in fate (an uncatchable fox being pursued by an unavoidable dog) turned the pair of beasts to stone or perhaps placed them amongst the stars as the Constellations Canis Major (Lailaps) and Canis Minor or Lepus (the Fox).
		But it had been ordained that the Fox could not be taken by any hunter, and that nothing should escape that dog when it went hunting.
		At once a second plague was launched on Thebae Aoniae, a savage beast [the Teumessian Fox] that killed and feasted on the farmfolk and their flocks.

		When about to be caught by the hound given by Artemis to Procris 2, the fox was turned into a stone, as was likewise the hound [see Amphitryon].

		It was said that it had been sent by the gods (perhaps Dionysus) to prey upon the children of Thebes as a punishment for some national crime.
		Zeus, faced with an innevitable contradiction in fate (an uncatchable fox being pursued by an unavoidable dog) turned the pair of beasts into stone.

	Corinna and the Oracular Past
		Since this tale is narrated by Cithaeron, who wins the contest, Corinna can be seen cleverly to oppose a local Boeotian variant against a Panhellenic version centered on Ida.
		Finally, from the title of Corinna's story involving Oedipus and the Teumessian fox (PMG 672) we can situate this story in the context of Boeotian hostility toward Athens.
		The story of the Teumessian fox is told in several late versions which all feature Cephalus as the hero and his extraordinary dog.
