Theseus was the greatest hero of Athens. When king Aegeus of Athens wanted children he went to Delphi to consult the oracle about it, but did not understand the answer. He then went to the wise king Pittheus in Troezen, who instead of telling Aegeus what the answer meant gave him his daughter Aethra. She had been seduced by Poseidon the same night, and the child, Theseus, she had was therefore considered both Aegeus and Poseidon's son.
