Solving problems is the skill that Oedipus is proud to possess in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban King Oedipus defeats the Sphinx. The Sphinx demands an answer to a challenging riddle. Not one of the incoming and outgoing Thebans figures out the answer. But Oedipus has the answer. He prides himself on his problem-solving abilities.
