This article lacks recent archaeological evidence for the highly developed metallurgical skills of ancient Colchis in the 8th century and the current debate on placing this myth before the Iliad. I can add these elements in February when I'll have some time. --Keltica 20:05, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- Personally I fully believe it is prior to the Iliad (Nestor, Peleus etc are old men in the latter). I've just deleted Jason from the list of Argonauts: he is mentioned right at the top of that list with Medea, who does not feature further down. Fuzzibloke 16:43, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Why are Polydeuces and Pollux listed separately? Pollux is simply the Latin form of the Greek name Polydeuces. These are two names for the same character74.197.20.58 (talk) 13:06, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] name
Can someone provide a source for the Argo being named after Argus. My information indicates that "argo" actually means "swift", so some citations might be helpful. Trippz (talk) 09:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
