The King saw the light shining from the window and ordered his men to tear down a wall so he could get in. When he got in there sat Danae and a baby in her lap. "I named him Perseus" she said. The king got mad and locked them in a chest and cast them out to sea.
What is the myth of Medusu and Perseus?
Perseus, was the son of Zeus and Danae, who was the daughter of the king of Argos. The king, greedy of his power, feared that he would be overthrown, so he visited the oracle regularly. He was told that his own grandson would kill him and claim his throne. To prevent this, he locked his daughter in a tall tower and killed anyone who came to claim her hand. Zeus, seeing her plight, visited her as a shower of gold, and eventually impregnated her. Her father, fearing the prophecy, put her and her child in a cask and set them onto the sea to die. Poseidon took pity on them and placed them gently on the shores of Seriphos. The king of that land wanted Danae for himself, but she did not want him, and Perseus acted as her protector. SO to get rid of the meddlesome boy, Polydectes had a massive feast, inviting everyone, on the condition that they bring a horse. Since Perseus and his mother and foster father were fishermen, they had no horses to give, so the rash Perseus offered the king any gift he asked for. The king, wasting no time, asked for Perseus to deliver to him the head of the Gorgon, Medusa. With some help from his divine family, Perseus was able to slay the monstrous Medusa by using the mirrored back of the Aegis to see her with. Then he used Hades' Helm of Invisibility to escape from the remaining immortal Gorgons (Medusa was the only mortal). On his way home (using the winged sandals of Hermes), he saw a beautiful woman being sacrificed to the Cetus (a giant fish). Her name was Andromeda and she was being sacrificed because her mother, Cassiopeia, claimed she was more beautiful than the Nereids (inciting Poseidon's wrath). Perseus slew the monster and claimed Andromeda for his bride. Phineas, the man to whom Andromeda had previously been promised, challenged Perseus. The hero produced the head of the slain Gorgon and turned his challenger to stone. On his return to Seriphos, he discovered that Polydectes, the king, had taken his mother as a slave and was forcing her to work against her will. Polydectes was surprised that Perseus lived and refused to believe that he had accomplished his task. So Perseus produced the head of Medusa and turned Polydectes and his court into stone as well. He placed Dictys, the brother of the king, on the throne and he took Danae as his wife and consort. Perseus did eventually slay Acrisius, king of Argos, but he did not claim the throne. Instead he went on to found the kingdom of Mycenae, and he is considered by many to be the progenitor of the Classical Greeks. Many references to later Greeks called them "Danaans" after his mother Danae.
Whose death does Antigone refer to as being likened to her own?
Antigone likens her death sentence to that of Danae. Danae was the daughter of King Acrisius and Queen Eurydice of Argos. The king was warned that death would come to him by way of his own son. The king therefore had his daughter Danae imprisoned in a remote cave or bronze tower. But Zeus, the king of the gods, managed to get into Danae's bedroom by assuming the form of a golden rain. The resulting interaction led to the birth of the hero Perseus. When King Acrisius learned of the successful delivery of a male child, he had mother and son locked inside a wooden chest. The chest was put into the ocean. But Zeus didn't want the mother of his child, or the child, to be hurt or die. And so he convinced the sea god, Poseidon, to calm the waters and let the chest drift to safety.

What is the setting of the myth in 'Antigone'?
The Argos palace, an underground prison, a sea chest, and the Aegean island of Seriphos are the settings of the ancient Greek myth of Danae. Specifically, a prophecy that he would be killed by his own grandson led King Akrisios of Argos to lock his daughter, Princess Danae, in an underground bronze chamber. But the supreme god Zeus slithered in as a golden shower, and Danae gave birth to Perseus. Her father put her and her infant son adrift in a chest. But Danae and Perseus managed to reach the island of Seriphos. From there, Perseus forged a successful life that ultimately ended his grandfather's life and claimed his grandfather's throne.The ancient Edonian city of Amphipolis at the mouth of the Strymon River and Mt Pangaeum in northeastern Greece are the settings of the myth of Thracian King Lycurgus, son of Dryas (I) and victim of Dionysus. Specifically, Lycurgus opposed the establishment of the worship of the wine god Dionysus. He persecuted the god's followers. But in his zeal, he accidentally killed his own son, Dryas (II). Ultimately, Lycurgus was imprisoned on a remote rocky slope before being dismembered by wild horses.The ancient Thracian city of Salmydessus on the Black Sea is the setting of the myth of Thracian King Phineus, whose second wife Idaea killed his two sons by his first wife Cleopatra. Cleopatra was the daughter of Boreas, ancient Greek god of the north wind. Even though the son of the sea god Poseidon, Phineus ended up blind through the envious will of his uncle, chief god Zeus.
