Speranza
Antoninus Liberalis writes:
Apollo and Akakallis had a child named Miletus."
Fearing the anger of Minos, her father, Akakallis exposed Miletus in the forst.
On orders of Apollo, she-wolves came to protect and suckle the infant.
Later, some ox-drivers found the child, took him in, and raised him as their own.
Miletus grew up into a strong and handsome young man.
Minos, seized with desire for him, wanted to take him by violence.
But Miletus sailed off, and he reached a place which he called "Miletus".
