Hypolite
Amazon - Humans
Hipólita is a personage of the Greek mythology, queen of the Amazons, daughter of Ares and the queen Otrera and sister of Pentesileia, Melanipe and Antíope. It is known to possess a magical belt, whose attainment was the ninth of the Twelve Works of Hercules. She is one of the most famous queens amazonas, having appeared in works of art, in literature and in the cinema, a daring woman.
History
In Greek mythology, Hippolyta was queen of the Amazons, a tribe of warrior women descending from Ares. She had a magic belt that had been given to her by Ares, her father. She was still the daughter of the Amazon queen Otrera and sister of Menalipe, Antíopa and Pentesiléia.
Hippolyta was kidnapped by Theseus, beginning a war with Athens. Although Hippolyta gave him a son, Theseus loses his interest in her, and ends up returning to the lands of the Amazons.
Hippolyta then finds Hercules. The ninth work of Hercules was to obtain exactly this belt, at the request of Admetus, daughter of Eurystheus. In one of the versions of the story, Hipólita falls in love with Hercules and gives him the belt without any problem. According to another version, the belt is obtained after Hercules kidnapped Hipólita's sister, Menalipe, asking for the belt as a ransom. The delivery of the belt to Hercules annoys the goddess Hera, enemy of the hero.
After Hercules obtained the belt, Theseus, one of Hercules' companions in this work (among whom Estenelo was also counted), kidnaps Antíopa, another sister of Hipólita. Disguised as an Amazon, Hera urges the women to attack Hercules by passing on the rumor that he is there to fight the famous warriors and, perhaps, to kidnap his queen. The Amazons, then, attack us.
Hercules and Theseus manage to flee with Anopopa. According to one version of the story, Hercules ends up killing Hippolyta in the fight to get out of that land. In order to rescue Antíopa, the Amazons attack Athens, but they fail. According to some versions, Antíopa dies in the assault.
In many versions, Theseus marries either with Antíopa or with Hipólita, having like son to Hipólito. Theseus marries, later with Phaedra, leaving his wife or dying this giving birth. In the version in which Theseus marries and leaves Hipólita, this return with his warriors during the marriage with Phaedra to massacre all the people. The attack fails and Hippolyta is killed (in one of the versions, by the men of Theseus, in another version, by Penthesilea, another Amazon).
