A famous magician and
Scythian high priest of Apollo.
He flatteringly sung Apollo's praises, and the god granted
him a golden arrow with which he could fly through the air like a bird.
As a result, he was dubbed the Aerobate by the Greeks.
Abaris could predict the future, calm storms, cure sickness,
and go days without eating or drinking.
He sculpted a figure of Minerva from Pelops' bones, which he
sold to the Trojans as a heavenly talisman.
This was the fabled Palladium, which guarded and made
impenetrable the town in which it resided.
