Pendant Hecale
In Greek mythology, Hecale was an old woman who offered succor to Theseus on his way to capture the Marathonian Bull. On the way to Marathon to capture the Bull, Theseus sought shelter from a storm in a shack owned by an ancient lady named Hecale. She swore to make a sacrifice to Zeus if Theseus was successful in capturing the bull. Theseus did capture the bull but when he returned to Hecale's hut, she was dead. Theseus built a deme in her honor.
