Labdakos to Lethe Leto to Lysizonos

Lykurgos (1)Lycurgus

The son of Dryas and noted as an object lesson as to why mortal men should not do battle with the Immortals.

While Dionysus was still a child, Lykurgos raged down the slopes of Mount Nysa and scourged the nurses of Dionysus; Lykurgos drove Dionysus into the sea where he was saved by Thetis; Zeus blinded Lykurgos and cursed him with a long life.

His name may also be rendered as Lykourgos or Lycourgos.
