But a bit-part player as far as "Helen" was concerned.

I'm looking more into the rituals the Greeks celebrated surrounding her cult.


Is Helen known to the western world as ....of Troy and to the Greeks (modern) as Helen of Sparta or is the name mutually acceptable?

You are always after links. I can no longer depend fully on my tired memories. :lol:

She was a Spartan ... that is the overriding qualification! The revisionists are meeting with resistance! :evil:

Although, Classical scholars of today would identify the Trojans as Greeks also.

Links ... no thanks, Deniz!

Ideas, yes please! :D

Since she was not legitimately married to Paris of Troy, she remained Helen of Sparta in accord to the RoC Constitution:
A married woman shall belong to the Community to which her husband belongs. Appendix D-Part I-7(a)

Actually Deniz! :D

Funny you should mention that! But GO Churches revere eggs and the reason is because Helen sprung from an egg (her mother, Leda, having mated with Zeus as a swan!).

Funny enough I saw Leda with her swan at Hever Castle the other day. Very erotic. Nice gardens, but have seen them in better condition.

You like giving ammo to Yfred to use against me, it seems.
