 In Greek mythology Talos was a man of
bronze, made by Hephaestus, whom Zeus gave to Europa after he
kidnapped her and took her to Crete. Talos became the guardian of
Crete, circling the island three times each day and throwing stones
at any ship which approached its shores. He had a single vein,
which ran from his neck to his ankle and was closed by a single
bronze nail. When the Argo approached Crete on the way back from
obtaining the Golden Fleece, Medea cast a spell on Talos and then
removed the bronze nail; all of Talos' blood ran out and he died,
thus enabling the ship to land. -
