Talos was son of Cres and father of Hephaestus. Talos guarded Crete by running round the island three times every day, and when intruders appeared he pelted them with stones including the Argonauts. Talos , who was made of bronze, had beneath the sinew by his ankle a red vein and in that vein was a nail, which Medea drew out, so that all the ichor gushed out.
