The Greek King Who COOKED His Son & Fed Him to ZEUS

There are many punishments in Greek mythology…But few are as chilling — or as deserved — as the one from this particular myth. In this tale - A king, beloved by the gods, was granted a seat at their table. He had their trust. Their favor. Their ear. But then… he did the unthinkable: he betrayed them. In this story, the actions of this man were so twisted, so vile, that even the Olympians were horrified. And for his crimes, he was given perhaps one of the greatest and most creative punishments inflicted on any being in Greek Mythology- eventually becoming a symbol of eternal punishment. But what exactly did he do? Why did a man so privileged risk everything? And what became of the gods who once welcomed him as their guest? Today, we uncover the truth behind one of the most disturbing myths in the ancient world.
