8 In Euripides’s Medea, it shows Medea’s impact on her beloved Jason’s legacy. However, Jason left Medea for the king’s daughter. Medea was PISSED, so she killed their kids for revenge. Ankhises saw Aphrodite and was in awe of her beauty. So much so, he assumed that she was of the gods. As any good woman in love would do, Aphrodite lied to him about her godliness which caused him some trouble. Similar to Hera’s need to punish all of the women Zeus rapes and impregnates, ancient Greek society had a nasty habit of blaming/punishing the woman raped by a man instead of the man that did the raping. Under Cybele’s control, Attis cuts his manhood off and turns himself into a female. However, once he is freed of Cybele’s spell, he realizes what he's done. This plays on Athena’s birth and the Eumenides. Athena was born of only Zeus. He gave birth to her throw his skull. In the Eumenides, Orestes and Apollo debate with the Furies why Orestes’ mother, Clytemnestra, is unimportant and/or less important than his father, Agamemnon.
