56 Crete in the Greek Tradition Sparta and Athens in the time of Solon. 1 He aided Solon in his legislation, 2 and purified by peculiar rites the city defiled by the Cylonian contamination. 3 A number of works on the mythol- ogy, religion, and constitution of Crete were ascribed to him. 4 13. Summary Now out of these myths of Cretan gods and heroes certain general facts may be abstracted which summarize the Greek belief concerning earliest Crete.
Many of the gods were bor...n in the island. This meant for a Greek that their worship originated there or at least was prevalent at a very early time and spread from this center to other places. Crete then was believed to have had a prominent place in the earliest religious thought of Hellas.
Agreeing with this is the name [xaxdpwv vqaoq "the island of the gods" applied to Crete, 6 or to places where Cretan influ- ence was very strong. 6 The Greeks further believed that the Cretan heroes had been great rulers, whose sway extended over the whole of the island, who ruled it well, and who subjected to themselves the nearby islands and the coasts of the mainland.
