    Summary

    “In the founding myth of the Lykaia, the king of Arcadia holds a feast for the gods, but he attempts to test Zeus’s omniscience by including human flesh in the feast, probably that of his own son. Zeus struck his house with a thunderbolt as punishment, ending his line. The festival it birthed celebrated the rite of passage from youth into manhood. Sacrifices were made to Zeus at nighttime towards the end of May, a single morsel of human flesh intermingled with that of the sacrificial animal, and whoever ate it was said to transform into a wolf for nine years."
