[PAR] [TLE] Thoas (king of Corinth) [SEP] In Greek mythology, Thoas was a son of Ornytion and a grandson of Sisyphus.  According to Pausanias, Thoas remained in Corinth, succeeding his father as its ruler, while his brother Phocus led a colony to Tithorea.  Thoas was the father of Damophon, Damophon of Propodas, and Propodas of Doridas and Hyantidas.  During the reign of the latter two, Corinth was seized by the Dorians under the command of Aletes, son of Hippotes.  The brothers handed control of Corinth to him and were allowed to remain in the city, while the rest of the people were expelled. [PAR] [TLE] Sisyphus [SEP] In Greek mythology Sisyphus or Sisyphos ( ; Greek: Σίσυφος , "Sísuphos ") was the king of Ephyra (now known as Corinth).  He was punished for his self-aggrandizing craftiness and deceitfulness by being forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it come back to hit him, repeating this action for eternity.  Through the classical influence on modern culture, tasks that are both laborious and futile are therefore described as Sisyphean ( ).
