| | Pelops - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In Greek mythology, Pelops (Greek Πέλοψ) was a son of Tantalus and Dione, and father of Pittheus, Plisthenes, Atreus and Thyestes. | | | Pelops' father was Tantalus, king at Mount Sipylus in Anatolia. | | | Still unsure of himself, Pelops (or alternatively, Hippodamia herself) convinced Oenomaus' charioteer, Myrtilus, a son of Hermes, (by promising him half of Oenomaus' kingdom and the first night in bed with Hippodamia), to help him win. |

| | Pelops was a grandson of Zeus, the king of the gods. | | | Pelops, however, had to return to mortal life because his father had abused the favour of heaven by feeding mere mortals with nectar and ambrosia, of which only gods partook. | | | According to Pindar, however, the sea god Poseidon loved Pelops and took him up to heaven; the ghastly feast was merely malicious gossip to account for his disappearance. |
