Izinhlamvu zezinganekwane zamaGreki ziphawulwe njengenye yezihloko ezithakaselwayo enanini elikhulu locwaningo. Izinganekwane zabo yizona ezishiwo kakhulu, ikakhulukazi ngenxa yobudlelwano abanabo bodwa. Funda kulesi sihloko mayelana ne-demigod Perseus.
Perseus
Le demigod yezinganekwane zamaGreki, ingomunye owaziwa kakhulu mayelana nalesi siko. Waziwa njengonkulunkulu, njengoba eyindodana kaZeus, obhekwa njengoyise wonkulunkulu nombusi wase-Olympus. Unina unguDanae ofayo, owayeyindodakazi yenkosi yase-Argive yenkosi yase-Argos no-Eurydice. UPerseus wayeno-Andromeda njengomkakhe, owayengowozalo lwamakhosi asenganekwaneni aseTopiya uCepheus noCassiopeia. Ubebuye abe ngubaba wezingane eziyisi-6.
Ukuzalwa
Esinye sezici ezibaluleke kakhulu zomfanekiso wezinganekwane zikaPerseus zihlobene nokuzalwa kwakhe. Njenganoma yimuphi umlando wezinganekwane, ikakhulukazi isiGreki, kunezikhathi lapho kunemibono ehlukene ngalesi sihloko.
Ezinguqulweni ezaziwa kakhulu, yiyona ebhekisela ku-oracle ememezela ku-Acririo, owayeyinkosi yase-Argos, ukuthi wayezofela ezandleni zomzukulu wakhe. Ngakho-ke, ukuvimbela lokhu kungenzeki, u-Acrisius wayala indodakazi yakhe uDanae ukuba iboshwe endaweni eyakhiwe ngethusi. Ngaleyo ndlela, wayengeke akwazi ukuba nobuhlobo obuseduze nendoda.
Ngaleso sikhathi, uZeus waba ishawa legolide futhi wawa ophahleni lapho uDanae ayekhona, ngakho ngaleyo ndlela wakhulelwa.
Enye inguqulo yokuzalwa kukaPerseus
Kukhona futhi inguqulo u-Ovid ayichazayo ku-Metamorphosis, lapho echaza khona ukuthi uPreto, owayengumfowabo ka-Acrisio, wanqoba uDanae ngaleyo ndlela waba noPerseus. Lapho uyise ethola lokho, kwabonakala kuye ukuthi ukuzalwa komntwana kwakungeyona into kaNkulunkulu futhi wawaphonsa olwandle eduze kwesifuba esakhiwe ngokhuni.
U-Poseidon, unkulunkulu wezilwandle, wayalwa nguZeus ukuba athulise ulwandle. UDanae noPerseus basinda, bafika emaphethelweni esiqhingi sase-Aegean Sea iSerifos, entshonalanga yeCyclades. Isiqhingi saseSerifos sasingaphansi komyalo weNkosi uPolidectes nomfowabo uDictis, owamukela owesifazane nendodana yakhe, beyikhulisa njengeyakhe.
Ukungenelela kweMedusa
Omunye wemininingwane yezinganekwane zamaGreki ukuthi izindaba zihlangene, ngakho-ke abanye abalingiswa nabo bahlotshaniswa nendaba kaPerseus.
Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi uPolidectes wayesamthanda ngokuphelele uDanae. Ngakho-ke, njengoba uPerseus wayesemncane kakade, uPolydectes wacabanga ukuthi uzoba yisicefe futhi wayefuna ukumqeda ngobuqili. Watshela wonke umuntu ukuthi uzonqoba iNkosazana uHippodamia, indodakazi ka-Oenomaus, iNkosi yasePisa. Ngakho wacela abasesiqhingini ukuba bamnike isipho ukuze asiphe inkosazana.
Kodwa-ke, uPerseus ukhulume ukuthi wayezoletha noma yisiphi isici, noma ngabe kwakuyinhloko yeMedusa, owaguqula labo ababebuka amehlo akhe abe ngamatshe futhi wayengomunye wamaGorgons amathathu (izilo zesifazane). Funda kabanzi mayelana ne- UGorgon.
UPerseus noMedusa
Ngale ndlela, uPolidectes wapha amahhashi ayephiwa yilabo ababesesiqhingini njengezipho, nakuba engazange awathole awakwaPerseus. Wathi akalethe ikhanda likaMedusa njengokusho kwakhe. Ngakho-ke, uPerseus waqhubeka nomkhankaso, eqondiswa onkulunkulu baka-Athena noHermesi, ukuze athole inzalo kaPhorcys (unkulunkulu wolwandle). Amadodakazi akhe kwakunguGraeas, onkulunkulu bangaphambi kwama-Olympic, ababengodadewabo bamaGorgons.
AbakwaGraya kwakungosisi aba-3 abazalwa sebekhulile futhi benezimpunga, nabo beneso elilodwa nezinyo elilodwa ababehlukaniselana bonke. Kodwa uPerseus wathatha amehlo abo futhi wawabuyisela, wabaphoqa ukuba bavume indawo lapho ama-nymphs (onkulunkulu abangaphansi kwabesifazane) ahlala khona, ababengodadewabo.
Ngale ndlela, uPerseus wathola ama-nymphs, owayezomnika isikhwama esinomlingo ukuze akwazi ukugcina ikhanda ngaphandle kwengozi. Bamnika nezimbadada ezinamaphiko nesigqoko sokuzivikela sikankulunkulu iHayidesi, okwenza noma ubani owayesigqoka angabonakali.
Ukuphela kweMedusa
UHermes wanika uPerseus umvuni owenziwe ngensimbi, ukuze anqume ikhanda likaMedusa. Ngenkathi u-Athena emnika isihlangu esinokukhanya okuningi, esifana nesibuko.
Lapho uPerseus esenazo zonke lezi zici, waya lapho kwakukhona khona amaGorgons, namadodakazi kaPhorcys. Sebelele wasondela. Ukuze enze lokhu, u-Athena wamqondisa, ngakho wasebenzisa isihlangu sethusi njengesibuko ukuze akwazi ukubona uMedusa, kodwa egwema ukumbheka ngokuqondile.
UPerseus wanquma ikhanda likaMedusa, lapho kwazalwa khona ihhashi elinamaphiko uPegado kanye ne-giant Chrysaor. Eqinisweni, odade abangafi baseMedusa bahamba bayofuna iPerseus. Kodwa abakwazanga ngoba wayegqoke isigqoko seHayidese futhi ngenxa yalokho wayengabonakali.
I-Atlas nePerseus
Ngemva kokuthola inhloko ye-Medusa, lo nkulunkulu we-demigod waya endaweni lapho kwabusa khona i-titan Atlas, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-Atlantis. Emcela ukuthi amamukele ahlale khona.
Kodwa i-titan yakhumbula ukuthi i-oracle yamtshela ukuthi indodana kaZeus yayizosondela kuye futhi ithathe izithelo ezazisensimini ye-Hesperides (ama-nymphs ayenakekela insimu emangalisayo entshonalanga). Ngakho waxosha uPerseus, kodwa wasebenzisa ikhanda likaMedusa futhi waguqula i-Atlas yaba ngamatshe.
I-Andromeda Rescue
Lapho uPerseus efika eTopiya, wathola u-Andromeda owayeboshelwe edwaleni. Wayenjena ngoba abazali bakhe, okwakungamakhosi uCepheus noCassiopeia, bakhipha umyalo wokuba uCeto ashwabadele, inunu yesifazane yasemanzini, eyayithunywe onkulunkulu kusukela uCassiopeia ethi wayemuhle kunabo bonke kumaNereids (amadodakazi angama-50 ka Nereus kanye noDoris).
Ngakho isiphrofetho sika-Amun sathi bazokhululwa kulesi silo uma i-Andromeda inikezwa njengokudla. Kodwa uPerseus wamthanda futhi wamkhulula, wabe esecela isandla kubazali bakhe futhi wabulala lesi silo ngenkemba yakhe. Enye inguqulo yenganekwane ichaza ukuthi walimaza indawo ye-monster lapho embonisa ikhanda likaMedusa.
Ngesikhathi lo nkulunkulu eshada no-Andromeda, uPhineus, owayengumalume wakhe futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo engumngane wakhe womshado, wasondela. Ngakho-ke, impi yalandela, lapho uPerseus ebulala khona abaningana, kodwa njengoba ayembalwa kakhulu eqenjini lakhe, kwadingeka asebenzise ikhanda likaMedusa ukuze uPhineus aphenduke amatshe kanye nalabo ababenaye. Funda kabanzi mayelana ne- abalingiswa bezinganekwane.
Ukuziphindiselela kwamaPolydectes
Lapho bebuyela eSeriphos, uDisctis noDanae basethempelini, bebalekele ukuhlukunyezwa kwePolydectes. Ngakho uPerseus waya lapho ayekhona kanye nenkantolo yakhe yonke, wakhipha ikhanda likaMedusa futhi wahlukumeza wonke umuntu owayelapho. Khona-ke wenza uDictis ukuba abe inkosi yaseSeriphos, wanika uHermes izimbadada ezinamaphiko, isaka nesigqoko sokuzivikela eHayidesi futhi, nekhanda likaMedusa ku-Athena, owalibeka ehawulweni lakhe.
ukugcwaliseka kwesiprofetho
Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, lo nkulunkulu wabuyela e-Argos, kanye noDanae no-Andromeda. Lapho u-Acririo ethola ukuthi umzukulu wakhe wayezomhlangabeza, waya edolobheni laseLarisa lapho kwakuqhutshwa khona imidlalo ethile. U-Perseus waya lapho imidlalo yayibanjelwe khona futhi wanquma ukubamba iqhaza ekuphonsweni kwe-discus, kodwa ngesikhathi edlala wenza kanjalo ngebhadi wagcina eshaye u-Acrisius ekhanda, wambulala. Ngakho, isiprofetho sagcwaliseka.
Ngenxa yokufa ngengozi kuka-Acrisius, uPerseus wayengafuni ukubusa u-Argos. Nokho, washintsha imibuso nomalume wakhe wesibili uMegapentes, owayengumzala kaDanae, inkosi yaseTiryns. Ngakho, Perseus waba umbusi Tiryns futhi Megapentes Argos.
Lapho uPerseus efa, u-Athena, owayengumqondisi wakhe omkhulu, wakhuphukela ezulwini, wamguqula waba umlaza. Kwenzeka okufanayo naku-Andromeda nabazali bakhe.
Izingane zikaPerseus
Lo nkulunkulu wayenezingane ezi-5 nomkakhe u-Andromeda, okwakuyi: Alceo, Heleo, Méstor, Esténelo kanye no-Electrion. Wayenendodakazi futhi enguGorgofone. Eqinisweni, enye yamadodana akhe aziwa kakhulu ezinganekwaneni zamaGreki kwakunguHercules.
Njengoba ungase uphawule, izinganekwane zamaGreki zakhiwa inani elikhulu labalingiswa okwathi bona babe yingxenye yezenzakalo eziningi okwakuyizona ezakha inganekwane ngayinye eyaziwa kuwo wonke umlando.
Uma ubunentshisekelo olwazini olukulesi sihloko, ungase futhi ube nentshisekelo yokwazi mayelana izinganekwane zomhlaba kanye legends.
