So to avoid this fate, Althaemenes, with many followers, fled Crete for Rhodes, and established on Mount Atabyrus (modern Attavyros) an altar to Zeus Atabyrius.
Years later, Catreus sailed the seas searching for his son, and heir to his throne.
One night, his ship stopped at Rhodes, fighting arose, and Althaemenes, unknowingly killed Catreus with his spear.
And although Catreus hid the oracles, Althaemenes found out and fled with his sister Apemosyne to Rhodes.
In this telling, when Althaemenes realized what had happened he prayed to the gods and fell into a chasm.
