CALAIS AND ZETES

in Greek mythology, the winged twin sons of Boreas and Oreithyia. On their arrival with the Argonauts at Salmydessus in Thrace, they liberated their sister Cleopatra, who had been thrown into prison by her husband, Phineus, the king of the country. According to another story, they delivered Phineus from the Harpies. They were slain by Heracles near the island of Tenos, possibly as a result of a quarrel with Tiphys, the pilot of the Argonauts. Calais traditionally founded Cales in Campania.
