Description

Palaephatus, a contemporary of Aristotle, sought to reinforce belief in the historicity of ancient heroes by tracing the evolution of 'actual' events into marvelously embellished myths. On Unbelievable Tales represents one of the earliest efforts to rationalize oft-told tales of Greek mythology.
