If you raise your eyes to the sky in these autumn nights and find out what happens to be peaceful and are about 22:00, you have before you a piece of history and mythology that goes from gold to that of iron!
Looking to the east (which is the part where the sun rises in the morning) you can recognize effortlessly costllazione Orion (the one with two stars, two down and three in the middle that form the famous belt ..... you know?)
, but almost sideways, just above, there is a bright star (a comparison) is called CAPELLA and part of the constellation, almost a pentagon / hexagon.
E 'built by an ancient constellation in memory of his son Hermes Mussel
Myrtilus was the uncle of the second degree of Odysseus that the war was the charioteer of Troiae Oenomaus son of the god Ares and
King dell'Elide
The king had a beautiful daughter named Hippodamia whose father was the same while being in love and did not want to put her in marriage to anyone, so he devised a way to not let it tie the lawful marriage.
King Oenomaus would challenge the coach to travel with all the suitors of his daughter, who was the prize of victory, but despite the grant of half an hour ahead, the defeat was certain because the horses that pulled the wagon was a gift from Ares so far superior to all the horses in Greece. The race was extremely cruel just because they were been reached by car real Oenomaus he would have slain them on the fly with a spear, and their body would be torn apart and nailed to the doors of his terrible game Myrtilus palazzo.In this was the one who drove the chariot of the king and was, unfortunately, secretly in love with the beautiful princess.
meanwhile had arrived in the reign of a king Oenomaus came from Phrygia and Lydia driven by barbarian invasion, and having heard about this race decided to take this opportunity to pounce. He was named Pelops shoulder mancante.Egli himself was the grandson of Zeus, and even he was resurrected after his father Tantalus (direct son of Zeus) had cut into pieces and cooked in order to offer a feast to all the gods and to prove their omniscience, but someone had eaten a shoulder which then was rebuilt in avorio.Con thought all this behind to win, but when he saw the other 13 contenders attacked at the entrance of the building was afraid and asked for help from her first lover (remember that we are in Ancient Greece) Poseidon gave him a light chariot and winged horses, then allied with Myrtilus promising her first night with Ippodomia. The princess fell in love with Pelops and prayed and ensnare the poor Myrtilus using their feminine charm.
So, falling into the trap, and only thinking about the love of that woman, Myrtilus betrayed his king, putting pins in wax instead of wood in the wheels, so the race Oenomaus broke away and fell, but before he died he cursed the charioteer, which in turn was betrayed and killed by Pelope.Anche he cursed the couple and their offspring up to Agamemnon.
