Which Greek god did Thebans worship?
It's never really discussed, but I imagine that they had altars to Athena (since Cadmus, the city's founder was going to make a sacrifice to her when he founded the city), Ares (since the site of the city's water was protected by a great serpent sacred to Ares) and Aphrodite (since Cadmus married Harmonia, the daughter of Ares and Aphrodite).
What did Cadmus do?
Cadmus was the brother of Europa, and with her disappearance, he went to Delphi to ask Apollo where she was. He was told to found a city, should follow a heifer when he left Delphi, and build the city where it sat down to rest. He founded Thebes, and had to fight and kill a dragon that guarded a nearby spring. Athena told him to sow the earth with the Dragon's teeth, which resulted in armed men springing up and attacking each other. With the help of the five survivors, Cadmus built Thebes to be large and glorious. Cadmus married Harmonia, and they had four daughters who were wrought with misfortune.

Cadmus was the founder of Thebes, around 2000 B.C.E.* He came from Phoenicia, where he lived as the son of Telephassa and King Agenor of Tyre. *Before the Christian Era.
