We said that Pelops came into Greece about the 26th year of Solomon:  he [144] came thither in the days of Acrisius, and in those of Endymion, and of his sons, and took AEtolia from Aetolus. Endymion was the son of Aethlius, the son of Protogenia, the sister of Hellen, and daughter of Deucalion:  Phrixus and Helle, the children of Athamus, the brother of Sisyphus and Son of AEolus, the son of Hellen, fled from their stepmother Ino, the daughter of Cadmus, to AEetes in Colchis, presently after the return of Sesostris into Egypt:  and Jason the Argonaut was the son of AEson, the son of Cretheus, the son of AEolus, the son of Hellen:  and Calyce was the wife of Aethlius, and mother of Endymion, and daughter of AEolus, and sister of Cretheus, Sisyphus and Athamas:  and by these circumstances Cretheus, Sisyphus and Athamas flourished in the latter part of the Reign of Solomon, and in the Reign of Rehoboam:  Aethlius, AEolus, Xuthus, Dorus, Tantalus, and Danae were contemporary to Erechtheus, Jasius and Cadmus; and Hellen was about one, and Deucalion about two Generations older than Erechtheus.  They could not be much older, because Xuthus the youngest son of Hellen [145] married Creusa the daughter of Erechtheus; nor could they be much younger, because Cephalus the son of Deioneus, the son of AEolus, the eldest son of Hellen, [146] married Procris the daughter of Erechtheus; and Procris fled from her husband to Minos.  Upon the death of Hellen, his youngest son Xuthus [147] was expelled Thessaly by his brothers AEolus and Dorus, and fled to Erechtheus, and married Creusa the daughter of Erechtheus; by whom he had two sons, Achaeus and Ion, the youngest of which grew up before the death of Erechtheus, and commanded the army of the Athenians, in the war in which Erechtheus was slain:  and therefore Hellen died about one Generation before Erechtheus.

Sisyphus therefore built Corinth about the latter end of the Reign of Solomon, or the beginning of the Reign of Rehoboam.  Upon the flight of Phrixus and Helle, their father Athamas, a little King in Boeotia, went distracted and slew his son Learchus; and his wife Ino threw her self into the sea, together with her other son Melicertus; and thereupon Sisyphus instituted the Isthmia at Corinth to his nephew Melicertus.  This was presently
