The tale of King Midas

King Midas, wandering one day in his garden, comes across the wise satyr Silenus who was rather the worse for wear after a night’s drinking. Midas is feeling generous and gives the satyr food and drink to restore his spirits and is in return granted a wish from Dionysus. WHAT WOULD YOU WISH FOR IF YOU COULD HAVE ANYTHING IN THE WORLD? 

The king, already famous for his wealth, chose to be given the magical ability to turn any object he touched into solid gold. Can you imagine that scenes from this story can be seen on Greek pots of clay made the whole way back in 560 BCE! That means it is 560 years before Jesus was said to be born.AMAZING!
