Castor and Pollux – together are known as Dioscuri.
They were the twin half-brothers in the Greek and Roman mythology. While Tyndareus, the king of Sparta, is the father of Castor – the mortal Son; Zeus, who had seduced Leda disguised as a swan, was the father of Pollux – the Divine Son.
They both were the son of Leda.
One of the prophecies says that both were born from an egg along with their twin sisters, namely – Clytemnestra and Helen of Troy.
