Jason's tale has been written down by many people in many time periods, including Pindar, Euripides and Apollonios. One version, the Argonautica Orphica, tells the tale from Orpheus' point of view. I'll draw on many of these as we go along.
A lost passage of the poet Pindar, quoted by the ancient writer Strabo, claims that the mountains mark the further Hercules ever traveled from home. Other versions of the tale tell that he built them to hold up the sky, to relieve Atlas from his burdensome duty. 7/12
