The Cretan moon goddess who was adopted into Greek myth as a virgin Phoenician princess abducted by Zeus in the form of a bull, raped by him, and subsequently abandoned. Europa was the daughter of the King Agenor of Sidon (Sidonia).
She had the continent of Europe named for her.
Somewhat miraculously Hera was distracted during her affair with Zeus and never punished her for it.
One night Europa had a dream. In this dream two continents, which were in the forms of women were arguing over Europa. Asia maintained that since Europa had been born in Asia she belonged to it.
The other continent, which was nameless, said that her birth was not important, that Zeus would give her to it.
It was early morning, disturbed by the dream Europa did not go back to sleep.
She summoned her companions, who were all daughters of nobility and of her age. It was a beautiful day and they went off gathering flowers by the sea.
Zeus noticed this charming group, particularly Europa, who was the prettiest of the maidens.
Some say that Eros, induced him into action with one of his darts. Although, Zeus often made due with self motivation.
In any case, Zeus appeared to the group as a white bull. A white bull more beautiful then any other. A bull that smelled of flowers, and lowed musically. A bull so obviously gentle that all the maidens rushed to stroke and pet it.
The bull laid down in front of Europa. She slid on to its back. Instantly, the bull charged off, plunging into the sea, and began to swim rapidly from the shore. Europa saw that a procession had joined them, Nereids riding dolphins,Triton blowing his horn, even Poseidon.
From this she realized that the bull must be a god. She pleaded with him to pity her.
Zeus spoke to her and explained his love. He took her to Create, where he had been raised.
He promised that she would bear him many famous sons.
Her sons included Minos and Rhadamanthus.
