Europa

Europa
In Greek mythology Europa (Greek: Ευρώπη Eurṓpē) was the daughter of Agenor, and was beloved by Zeus. Zeus took the form of a white bull and encountered Europa at the seashore. He coaxed her to climb onto his back and then swam off with her across the sea to Crete. In Crete, Europa had three sons by Zeus--Minos, Sarpedon, and Rhadamanthys. Zeus also gave her three gifts: the bronze man, Talos, to act as her guardian; a dog, Laelaps, which never failed of its quarry; and a javelin which never missed its mark. Europa afterwards married Asterius, the king of Crete.
