Botres
(Ancient Greek: Βότρης) was a Theban son of Eumelus and grandson of Eugnotus.Eumelus venerated the god Apollo devotedly and honored him with generous offerings.One day, when Eumelus was sacrificing a ram to the god, Botres, who was helping around, tasted the victim's brain before the ritual was completed.Eumelus, enraged, hit Botres on the head with a brand and inflicted a fatal injury on him.Being that Eumelus was a devotee, Apollo took pity on them and changed Botres into a bird called Aeropus (bee-eater).
