<P> Many years later , Pelias offered a sacrifice by the sea in honor of Poseidon . Jason , who was summoned with many others to take part in the sacrifice , lost one of his sandals in the flooded river Anaurus while rushing to Iolcus . In Virgil 's Aeneid , Hera had disguised herself as an old woman , whom Jason was helping across the river when he lost his sandal . When Jason entered Iolcus , he was announced as a man wearing one sandal . Fearful , Pelias asked Jason what he would do if confronted with the man who would be his downfall . Jason responded that he would send that man after the Golden Fleece . Pelias took Jason 's advice and sent him to retrieve the Golden Fleece . It would be found at Colchis , in a grove sacred to Ares , the god of war . Though the Golden Fleece simply hung on an oak tree , this was a seemingly impossible task , as an ever - watchful dragon guarded it . </P>
