The Gods and Lycaon's Feast: The Great Flood, Part 1 | A Tale from Greek Mythology
The Greek myth of the Great Flood begins, as Zeus informs the other Olympian gods of his encounter on earth with the evil king Lycaon. What were Lycaon's crimes, how was he punished, and what does this portend for the fate of humanity as Zeus and the gods sit in council?
A story from Greek mythology, adapted from Ovid's Metamorphoses (Book 1), featuring: Zeus/Jupiter, Lycaon, the Olympian gods
