Argo was the vessel on which Jaso and the Argonauts sailed to Colchis to capture the Golden Fleece. They succeeded with the help of the magician Medea. On the way back, Jaso abandoned Medea, who by revenge cut the throat of their children. The story inspired several writers such as Euripides, Seneca and Corneille, as well as the movie maker Pier Paolo Pasolini, with Maria Callas as Medea.
