EP 60: Thebes, The City That Gods & Heroes Forsook
Of all the Greek city-states,Thebes was the one most soaked in blood and ancient curses. There, the hero Heracles had killed his wife and children. There, the god Dionysus punished the city’s king. There too the infamous Oedipus played out his grim fate. These events defined the city’s past.
Then in 335 BC, Alexander the Great surrounded Thebes and brought it to its final end.
