Legend / Myth |
Athamas's son Phrixus and daughter Helle was carried by Aries to Colchis so that they could escape their stepmother Ino. Phrixus made it to safety but Helle fell into some water and became Hellepoint. Once Phrixus was safe, he sacrificed the Ram, its fleece was flung onto a Grove of Ares. The fleece turned to gold. Jason and the Argonauts sought out this fleece for its healing properties.
