Europa

(Εὐρώπη) - A Phoenician princess, daughter of King Agenor, whose abduction is one of the most famous foundation myths in the ancient world. Captivated by her beauty as she gathered flowers by the sea, Zeus transformed himself into a magnificent, gentle white bull. Once Europa climbed onto his back, he plunged into the waves and carried her away to Crete. There, she bore him three legendary sons - Minos, Rhadamanthys, and Sarpedon - who established the great Minoan civilization and eventually became the Judges of the Underworld.
