Biography
Alectryon (Ancient Greek: ἀλεκτρυών) in Greek mythology, was a young soldier who was assigned by Ares, the god of war, to guard the outside of his bedroom door while the god indulged in a love affair with none other than the love goddess Aphrodite. Ares, fearing that his affair with Aphrodite would be found out and then he would be told on by Helios, the sun god, especially because of his suspicions that he would tell Hephaestus, commanded Alectryon to stand outside his door and watch for Helios or anyone else, to stop his affair. Alectryon fell asleep during watch duty and Helios discovered them the next morning. The sun-god then informed Hephaestus, Aphrodite's husband, suggesting that Hephaestus should be to create a net to ensnare and then shame them. Furious, Ares punished Alectryon by transforming him into a rooster which never forgets to announce the rising of the sun in the morning by its crowing, his own way of apologizing to Ares for falling asleep on the job.
