CIT_MARSYAS_APOLLO ENT_MARSYAS SRC_APOLLODORUS_LIBRARY Pseudo-Apollodorus, Library Library 1.4.2 Apollo also slew Marsyas, the son of Olympus. For Marsyas, having found the pipes which Athena had thrown away because they disfigured her face, engaged in a musical contest with Apollo. They agreed that the victor should work his will on the vanquished, and when the trial took place Apollo turned his lyre upside down in the competition and bade Marsyas do the same. But Marsyas could not, so Apollo was judged the victor and despatched Marsyas by hanging him on a tall pine tree and stripping off his skin. J. G.
