Rhadamanthus
In Greek mythology, Rhadamanthus () or Rhadamanthys (Ancient Greek: Ῥαδάμανθυς) was a wise king of Crete. As the son of Zeus and Europa he was considered a demigod. He later became one of the judges of the dead and an important figure in Greek mythology.
His name, whose etymology is obscure, was later used to allude to persons showing stern and inflexible judgement.
