🙌 According to the myth #Rhea saved her youngest son #Zeus from Cronus and him brought to Ideon Andron, where the Kuretes warriors guarded him and drowned out the crying of little Zeus by dancing very fast, while their armor banging loudly. This dance is the ancestor of today’s #Pentozalis, a traditional Cretan dance.
👌 Excavations confirmed that the cave was the most important of #Minoan Crete, King Minos is said to have risen to Ideon Andron every 9 years to pray to Zeus and receive new orders to get him. 70 meters from the entrance of the cave, the visitor can see the large carved rectangular altar used in the ancient ceremonies.
👉 Participate in our “The Mysteries of the Cretan-Born Zeus” and hike to the Cave of Ida and find out the stories behind the birth of Zeus, the God of all Gods.
