Amphion on Pandora's Box

Amphion is the son of Zeus and Antiope. Taught by Hermes, he learned quickly the musical arts. Excellent with a lyre, he was able to move even the stones of the earth, and help construct the walls of Thebes. On his way home to marry his sweetheart, Niobe, he was waylaid by some who thought it was the instrument, not the musician who held the power.
