希腊神话中的 Medus

美杜斯是希腊神话中女巫美狄亚的儿子,本应成为雅典国王,但美杜斯却成为了科尔奇斯国王。

美狄亚之子美杜斯

美狄亚 美狄亚逃到雅典,在那里她引诱并嫁给了杰森。 埃吉斯国王 美狄亚为埃吉斯生了一个儿子,名叫美杜斯。

比较少见的是,美杜斯被称为杰森之子,美狄亚在被遗弃前已经怀孕。

雅典的梅杜斯

在雅典,美狄亚将培养美杜斯接替埃吉斯成为雅典国王。

但美狄亚的计划很快就被终止了,因为特修斯来到雅典,要求得到他与生俱来的权利。 在埃吉斯认出自己的儿子之前,美狄亚试图毒死特修斯,但特修斯的父亲将毒杯从他手中扔掉了。

美狄亚和美杜斯因此被迫逃离雅典。

科尔基斯的美杜斯

在美狄亚神话中,母子二人在前往美狄亚的故乡科尔基斯的途中,却在暴风雨中失散。

美杜斯将首先到达科尔奇斯,但这片土地现在由 Perses 美狄亚的叔叔,他废黜了 埃厄忒斯 不过,佩尔塞斯现在生活在恐惧之中,害怕伊埃特斯的后裔会向他复仇。

美杜斯意识到了自己的危险,为了保住性命,美杜斯声称自己是科林斯国王克瑞翁的儿子希波提斯。 这个诡计使美杜斯免于一死,但还是导致美杜斯被关进了监狱,而珀尔塞斯正在调查美杜斯/希波提斯的真实身份。 然而,美杜斯刚被关进监狱,一场瘟疫就降临到了科尔奇斯。

不久之后,美狄亚驾着她的战车来到了科尔奇斯。 太阳神 美狄亚声称自己是阿耳忒弥斯的女祭司,可以帮助珀尔塞斯的王国摆脱瘟疫,但为此她告诉珀尔塞斯,她必须杀死他的囚犯,因为美狄亚担心希波特斯是为了报杀父之仇。

美狄亚给了美杜斯一把剑,美杜斯用这把剑杀死了珀尔塞斯。

美杜斯由此成为科尔奇斯国王。

后来,美杜斯扩大了科尔基斯王国的版图,征服了邻近的土地,这块新土地被称为米迪亚(Media),现在位于伊朗东北部,以美杜斯或美狄亚的名字命名。

有人说,美杜斯是在与印第安人作战时,为了扩张王国而死去的。
