asterion
In Greek mythology, Asterion (Greek: , literally "starry") or Asterius ()〔Pseudo-Apollodorus, ''Bibliotheca'' III.1.2–4, and Diodorus Siculus, IV.60.3, give ''Asterius''; Pausanias, ''Description of Greece'' II.31.1, gives ''Asterion''.〕 denotes two sacred kings of Crete, as well as a river and its god in Argos.
==Asterion I==
The first Asterion, the son of Tectamus, son of Dorus, king of Crete, was the consort of Europa and stepfather of her sons by Zeus,〔Pseudo-Apollodorus, ''Bibliotheca'' III.1.2; Asterius "having died childless" III.1.3; scholiast on ''Iliad'' XII.292.〕 who assumed the form of the Cretan bull to accomplish his role. The sons were Minos, the just king in Crete who judged the Underworld; Rhadamanthus, presiding over the Garden of the Hesperides or in the Underworld; and Sarpedon, likewise a judge in the Afterlife. When he died, Asterion gave his kingdom to Minos, who promptly "banished" his brothers after quarrelling with them. Crete, daughter of Asterion, was a possible wife of Minos.
