ZEUS and EUROPA<br />

Zeus was enamored of Europa and decided to seduce or ravish her. He<br />

transformed himself into a tame white bull and mixed in with her father's herds.<br />

While Europa and her female attendants were gathering flowers, she saw the bull,<br />

caressed his flanks, and eventually got onto his back. Zeus took that opportunity<br />

and ran to the sea and swam, with her on his back, to the island of Crete. He then<br />

revealed his true identity, and Europa became the first queen of Crete.<br />
