Story of Io
Io is the daughter of Inahos, the river god of ancient Greeks. She was a priestess of Hera in Argos and the secret lover of Zeus who changed her into a heifer to escape her from the wrath of his jealous wife, Hera.
Heifer Io, stung by a maddening gadfly sent by Hera, was forced to wander the earth without rest. She eventually crossed the path between the Propontis and the Black Sea, which thus acquired the name Bosphorus (meaning of passage), where she met Prometheus.
Prometheus had been chained on Mt. Caucasus by Zeus for teaching mankind how to make fire; every day, a giant eagle fed on Prometheus' liver.
Despite his agony, he comforted Io with the information that she would be restored to human form and become the ancestress of the greatest of all heroes, Heracles (Hercules).
Io escaped across the Ionian Sea to Egypt, where she was restored to human form by Zeus. There, she gave birth to Zeus's son Epaphus, and a daughter as well, Keroessa. She later married Egyptian king Telegonus. Their grandson, Danaos, eventually returned to Greece with his fifty daughters (the Danaids), as recalled in Aeschylus' play The Suppliants.
