Abalinganiswa basentsomini bamaGrike baye baphawulwa njengenye yezihloko ezinomdla kwisixa esikhulu sophando. Iintsomi zabo zezona zikhankanyiweyo, ngakumbi ngenxa yobudlelwane abanabo omnye nomnye. Funda kweli nqaku malunga ne-demigod Perseus.
Perseus
Lo thixo ungowentsomi yamaGrike, ungomnye waziwa kakhulu malunga nale nkcubeko. Waziwa njengothixo, ekubeni engunyana kaZeyus, ogqalwa njengoyise woothixo nomlawuli weOlympus. Unina nguDanae ofayo, owayeyintombi eyinkosazana yaseArgive kakumkani waseArgos nase-Eurydice. UPerseus naye wayenoAndromeda njengomfazi wakhe, owayeyinzala yookumkani basentsomini baseTopiya uCepheus noCassiopeia. Wayekwanguyise wabantwana abayi-6.
Ukuzalwa
Enye yezona zinto zibalulekileyo zomfanekiso we-mythological wePerseus inxulumene nokuzalwa kwakhe. Njengayo nayiphi na imbali yentsomi, ngakumbi isiGrike, kukho amaxesha apho kukho iimbono ezahlukeneyo ngalo mbandela.
Kwiinguqulelo ezaziwa kakhulu, yileyo ibhekisela kwi-oracle ebhengeza ku-Akrisio, owayengukumkani waseArgos, ukuba wayeza kufa ezandleni zomzukulwana wakhe. Ngoko ke, ukuthintela oku kungenzeki, u-Acrisius wayala intombi yakhe uDanae ukuba avalelwe kwindawo eyakhiwe ngobhedu. Ngaloo ndlela, wayengenakukwazi ukuba nobuhlobo obusondeleyo nendoda.
Ngelo xesha, uZeus waba yimvula yegolide waza wawa ephahleni apho uDanae wayekhona, ngoko ke wakhulelwa.
Enye inguqulelo yokuzalwa kukaPerseus
Kukho kwakhona inguqulo u-Ovid ayichazayo kwiMetamorphosis, apho echaza ukuba uPreto, owayengumninawa ka-Acrisio, wanqoba uDanae waza waba noPerseus. Xa uyise wafumanisayo, kwabonakala kuye ukuba ukuzalwa komntwana kwakungengoThixo waza wabaphosa elwandle ecaleni kwesifuba esenziwe ngamaplanga.
U-Poseidon, uthixo wolwandle, wayalelwa nguZeus ukuba azole ulwandle. UDanae noPerseus basinda, bafikelela kwincam yesiqithi soLwandle iAegean iSerifos, kwintshona yeCyclades. Isiqithi saseSerifos sasiphantsi komyalelo kaKumkani Polidectes kunye nomntakwabo uDictis, owamkela umfazi kunye nonyana wakhe, bemkhulisa njengowakhe.
Ungenelelo lweMedusa
Enye yezinto ezibalaseleyo kwintsomi yamaGrike kukuba amabali adityanisiwe, ngoko ke abanye abalinganiswa badityaniswa nebali likaPerseus.
Njengoko ixesha lalihamba iPolidectes yayisathandana ngokupheleleyo noDanae. Ngoko, ekubeni uPerseus wayesele emncinci, uPolydectes wayecinga ukuba uya kuba yinkathazo kwaye wayefuna ukumkhupha ngeqhinga. Waxelela wonke umntu ukuba uya kunqoba i-Princess Hippodamia, intombi ka-Oenomaus, uKumkani wasePisa. Ngoko wacela abo bakweso siqithi ukuba bamnike isipho ukuze asiphe inkosazana.
Nangona kunjalo, uPerseus wakhankanya ukuba uya kuhambisa nayiphi na into, nokuba yintloko yeMedusa, eyajika abo bajonga amehlo akhe babe ngamatye kwaye yayingomnye weGorgons ezintathu (izilo zabasetyhini). Funda ngakumbi malunga ne UGorgon.
Perseus kunye neMedusa
Ngale ndlela, uPolidectes wathabatha njengezipho zamahashe awayephiwe ngabo babekweso siqithi, nangona yena engazange awafumane lawo ePerseus. Wamyalela ukuba amzisele intloko kaMedusa njengoko wayetshilo. Ngoko ke, uPerseus wahamba iphulo, ekhokelwa zizithixo zika-Athena noHermes, lokukhangela inzala kaPhorcys (uthixo wolwandle). Iintombi zakhe zaziyiGraeas, izithixo zangaphambi kweOlimpiki, ezazingoodade beGorgons.
AbakwaGraya ibingoosisi 3 abazalwa bebadala kwaye bengwevu, nabo baneliso elinye nezinyo elinye ababelana ngalo kubo bonke. Kodwa uPerseus wathatha amehlo abo waza wawabuyisela, wabanyanzela ukuba bavume indawo apho ama-nymphs (izithixo ezingaphantsi kwabasetyhini) ahlala khona, ababengoodadewabo.
Ngale ndlela, uPerseus wafumana i-nymphs, ngubani oya kumnika isikhwama esinomlingo ukuze akwazi ukugcina intloko ngaphandle kwengozi. Bamnika neembadada ezinamaphiko nesigcina-ntloko sothixo weHadesi, esasisenza ukuba nabani na osinxibileyo angabonakali.
Ukuphela kweMedusa
UHermes wanika uPerseus umvuni owenziwe ngentsimbi, ukuze anqumle intloko kaMedusa. Ngoxa u-Athena wamnika ikhaka ngokukhanya okukhulu, okufana nesibuko.
Emva kokuba uPerseus wayenazo zonke ezi zinto, waya apho kwakukho iiGorgons, neentombi zasePhorcys. Bathe besalele wasondela. Ukwenza oku, u-Athena wamkhokela, ngoko wasebenzisa ikhuselo lobhedu njengesibuko ukuze akwazi ukubona uMedusa, kodwa ukuphepha ukumjonga ngokuthe ngqo.
UPerseus wanqumla intloko yeMedusa, apho ihashe elinamaphiko iPegado kunye neChrysaor enkulu yazalwa. Enyanisweni, oodade abangafi baseMedusa bahamba befuna iPerseus. Kodwa babengenakukwazi ngenxa yokuba wayenxibe isigcina-ntloko seHadesi yaye ngenxa yoko wayengabonakali.
IAtlas kunye nePerseus
Emva kokufumana intloko yeMedusa, lo thixo waya kwindawo apho i-titan Atlas encinci, eyaziwa ngokuba yi-Atlantis, yayilawula khona. Bemcela ukuba amamkele ukuze ahlale khona.
Kodwa i-titan yakhumbula ukuba i-oracle yamxelela ukuba unyana kaZeyus wayeza kuye aze athabathe iziqhamo ezazisegadini ye-Hesperides (i-nymphs eyayinyamekela umyezo omangalisayo osentshona). Ngoko wamgxotha uPerseus, kodwa wasebenzisa intloko kaMedusa waza wajika iAtlas ibe ngamatye.
Andromeda Rescue
Akufika uPerseus e-Ethiopia, wafumana uAndromeda owayebotshelelwe elityeni. Wayenjalo kuba abazali bakhe, ababengookumkani uCepheus noCassiopeia, banikela umyalelo wokuba uCeto amqwenge, i-monster yasemanzini yasemanzini, ethunyelwe ngoothixo ukususela ekubeni uCassiopeia wathi wayengoyena mhle weNereids (iintombi ezingama-50 ze Nereus kunye noDoris).
Ngoko u-Amun wachaza ukuba baya kukhululwa kwi-monster ukuba i-Andromeda inikwe njengokutya. Kodwa uPerseus wamthanda waza wamkhulula, waza wabuza abazali bakhe isandla sakhe waza wabulala i-monster ngekrele lakhe. Olunye uguqulelo lwentsomi luchaza ukuba wonakalise indawo ye-monster xa wambonisa intloko kaMedusa.
Kanye ngelo xesha xa lo thixo wayetshata noAndromeda, uPhineus, owayenguyisekazi kayise kwangaxeshanye eyindoda awayeza kutshata nayo, wasondela. Ngoko ke, kwabakho imfazwe, apho uPerseus wabulala abaninzi, kodwa ekubeni wayembalwa kakhulu kwiqela lakhe, kwafuneka asebenzise intloko kaMedusa ukuze uPineus ajike abe ngamatye kunye nabo babenaye. Funda ngakumbi malunga ne abalinganiswa basentsomini.
Ukuziphindezela kwePolydectes
Ukubuyela eSeriphos, uDisctis noDanae babesetempileni, bebalekele ukungcungcuthekiswa yiPolydectes. Ngoko uPerseus waya apho yena nayo yonke inkundla yakhe, wakhupha intloko kaMedusa waza watyhola wonke umntu olapho. Wandula ke wabangela ukuba uDictis abe ngukumkani waseSeriphos, wanika uHermes iimbadada ezimaphiko, ingxowa yesigcina-ntloko nesigcina-ntloko eHadesi kwakhona, nentloko kaMedusa kuAthena, owayibeka kwikhaka lakhe.
inzaliseko yesiprofeto
Ekuhambeni kwexesha, le demigod wabuyela Argos, kunye Danae andromeda. Xa u-Acririo wafumanisa ukuba umzukulwana wakhe wayeza kumhlangabeza, waya kwisixeko saseLarisa apho kwakukho imidlalo ethile. UPerseus waya apho imidlalo yayibanjelwe khona kwaye wagqiba ekubeni athathe inxaxheba kwi-discus throw, kodwa xa edlala wenza oko ngelishwa waza wagqiba ukubetha u-Acrisius entloko, wambulala. Ngaloo ndlela, isiprofeto sazaliseka.
Ngenxa yokufa ngengozi kuka-Acrisius, uPerseus akazange afune ukulawula uArgos. Nangona kunjalo, watshintshiselana ngezikumkani kunye nomalume wakhe wesibini uMegapentes, owayengumzala kaDanae, ukumkani waseTiryns. Ngoko ke, uPerseus waba ngumlawuli weTiryns kunye neMegapentes yaseArgos.
Xa uPerseus wafayo, uAthena, owayengumkhokeli wakhe omkhulu, wanyukela ezulwini, wamguqula waba likroza. Kwenzeka into efanayo nakuAndromeda nabazali bakhe.
Abantwana basePerseus
Lo thixo wayenabantwana aba-5 kunye nomfazi wakhe u-Andromeda, ababe: Alceo, Heleo, Méstor, Esténelo kunye no-Electrion. Kwakhona wayenentombi enguGorgofone. Enyanisweni, omnye woonyana bakhe abaziwayo kwiintsomi zamaGrike yayinguHercules.
Njengoko usenokuba uye waphawula, intsomi yamaGrike ibunjwe liqela elikhulu labalinganiswa abathi nabo babeyinxalenye yeziganeko ezininzi ababeyila intsomi nganye eyaziwa ukutyhubela imbali.
Ukuba ubunomdla kulwazi olukweli nqaku, unokuba nomdla wokwazi malunga ne iintsomi zehlabathi kunye namabali.
