Oedipus became King of Thebes by solving the riddle of the Sphinx, a monstrous creature that had been terrorizing the city. The riddle asked, "What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?" Oedipus correctly answered "man," demonstrating his intelligence and bravery. In gratitude for freeing them from the Sphinx's curse, the Thebans crowned him as their king.
