Best Answer

Cadmus was the brother of Europa, and with her disappearance, he went to Delphi to ask Apollo where she was. He was told to found a city, should follow a heifer when he left Delphi, and build the city where it sat down to rest. He founded Thebes, and had to fight and kill a dragon that guarded a nearby spring. Athena told him to sow the earth with the Dragon's teeth, which resulted in armed men springing up and attacking each other. With the help of the five survivors, Cadmus built Thebes to be large and glorious.

Cadmus married Harmonia, and they had four daughters who were wrought with misfortune.
