To this we owe claims in ancient Greece that Demeter was the daughter of Cronus and mother of Persephone by Zeus, and that Melissa was the daughter of Melisseus,rather than his wife.Baal Hadad/Teshub was the son of Dagon/Kumarbi.Melissa was a name shared by Demeter,Artemis and Aphrodite.Aristaeus/Melisseus=Dagon/Min.ĭagon was called Ninurta in Babylonia/Sumer.Ninurta=Shulmanu/Saturn. Staphylus=Ashtabil/Ashtabi/Ashtapi/Zababa=Anubis/Cerberus/Hermes/Odysseus/ĭaedalus is Dagon/Kumarbi/Cronus/Minos.Shala was Dagon's wife.In Sumer where rain rarely fell Shala was an import from Syria/Anatolia and became confused with Ishkur's wife,replacing Halabatu/Hebat.

According to Apollo, Zeus himself wasn't strong enough to pull his chariot or control his horses. He thought he could drive his father's chariot because he was the son of a god, he felt that he had to prove that he was better than human, but even the sons of gods had limitations.

Phaethon came to a similar end because of hubris. Had Icarus heeded his father's warning and stayed between both realms, he'd have been safe, but once he crossed that line he lost his life. Keep in mind that, at the time, the sea belonged to Poseidon and the sky belonged to Zeus (no planes or subs, ships yes, but sailors knew that Poseidon ruled them). As humans, we have limitations, and Icarus disregarded that knowledge. Icarus' downfall came when he though himself to go where only the gods and heros had gone before. Hubris was frowned upon in Greek and Roman myth.
