Three Greek Myths: Perseus, Theseus and Prometheus | Mythology for Sleep

  • Summary

  • In these bedtime stories, I tell you three different myths from Ancient Greece:

    • The story of Perseus, how he was conceived by Zeus and Danaë, went on an adventure to cut off the head of Medusa the Gorgon, and rescued Andromeda.
    • The myth of the Labyrinth, built in Crete by Daedalus for King Minos to contain the Minotaur, and how Theseus slew it with the help of Ariadne.
    • The myth of Prometheus, who stole the secret of fire to give it to mankind and was punished for it.
