Cairetw se filh!
I think my
goodly Maia that you have right concerning the relationship of Dioscuri, in a
more detailed manner! We must understand that myths have nothing to do with
ritual and liturgical rites.
The same we
can say for the Dioscuri not in Sparta – Laconia but, also, to the rest of the
Hellenic world! Dioscuri are linked with Zeus Ktesios and His Kadiskoi. They
are the anakeV “lords”
but even though the QeoiV MegaloiV “Great Gods”, especially in Thessaly etc. In
myths are the “sons of Zeus”, but in rituals are the functionary lords.
See here for a linked
celebration and cult name of Zeus with Dioscuri!
Yours,
Nikolaos Cleomenes
