Aeëtes was the son of Sun god Helios and the Oceanid Perseis, brother of Circe, Perses and Pasiphaë, and father of Medea, Chalciope and Absyrtus. According to others, he was the brother of Perses, a king of Tauris, husband of his niece Hecate, and father of Medea, Chalciope and Absyrtus. Aeëtes built a new colony in Colchis, near the mouth of the large river Phasis, and called it Aea. Flight of two siblings[edit] Jason then took the fleece and sailed away with Aeëtes's daughter Medea, who had fallen in love with him and had done much to help him win the fleece. Aeëtes paused to gather the pieces of his son, and thus Jason and Medea escaped.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-3691.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-3691.txt
