description: "Dionysius Scytobrachion, also known as Dionysius of Mytilene, was the author of a series of stories set in the region now known as Libya. His works depicted the Olympian gods as mortals from a distant past, and subjects included the Amazons, Alexander the Great, and the Argonauts. The latter stories are included a six-book work known as the Argonautica, in which the captain of the Argo is Hercules (Heracles), rather than Jason, as in most modern stories. These stories were used as sources by Diodorus Siculus."
