| | Aeetes, Greek Mythology Link. |
 | | Aeetes is the King of Colchis, the land at the eastern end of the Black Sea, who received from Phrixus 1, son of Athamas 1, the Golden Fleece. | | | When Aeetes lost the Golden Fleece, he lost also his kingship, for the oracle had said that he would keep his kingdom as long as the fleece remained in the shrine of Ares, and that is why Perses 3, his brother, could depose him and become king in his stead. | | | On leaving Aeetes entrusted the kingdom to Bunus, the son of Hermes and Alcidamea, and when Bunus died, Epopeus 1, who some call son of Aloeus 2, brother of Aeetes, extended his own kingdom to include Corinth. |

| | Meanwhile, prompted by Medea, Jason steeped the charm in water and sprinkled with it his shield and sturdy spear, and sword; and his comrades round him made proof of his weapons with might and main, but could not bend that spear even a little, but it remained firm in their stalwart hands unbroken as before. | | | Some of the thralls were busied with a mighty bull, others with the axe were cleaving dry billets, and others heating with fire water for the baths; nor was there one who relaxed his toil, serving the king. | | | And so earth has an equal portion with air, seeing that they bury the women; for that is the custom of their land. |

| | There is a strange disconnect between the actions of the Argonauts in Aeetes’ war and a realization of their support for an unjust cause, and that strangeness is made even greater in that the gods, who should know better, join in. | | | In other words, the gods can cause chaos, as the big picture will remain undisturbed – small consolation to all those who lose their life in that day’s battle, or those who must see justice forestalled. | | | Even Jason has his doubts – only the fact that he has married Medea by that point keep him from going along with the suggestion (VIII, 382ff.). |

| | The justness of this outcome is ultimately supported by the narrator, who declares Aeetes worthy of being deceived, and worthy of being abandoned. | | | Allusions to Pelias' death at the hands of his own children and also to the terrible torments that await Pelias in the underworld emphasize the consequences of the actions of a tyrant who compels his subjects to commit suicide. | | | Amycus' graphic death at the hands of Pollux in a boxing match similarly suggests a world in which a just and appropriate end is expected, as he dies in the same manner as that to which he has subjected all earlier visitors to his kingdom. |
