Creon (King of Corinth was son)

King of Corinth, was son of Sisyphus.

He promised his daughter Glauce to Jason, who had repudiated Medea. To revenge herself on her rival, Medea sent her a present of a dress covered with poison. Glauce put it on, and was seized with sudden pain. Her body took fire, and she expired in the greatest agony. The house in which she was, was also consumed, and Creon and his family shared Glauce's fate.
