Bellerophon riding Pegasus and slaying the Chimera, central medallion of a Gallo-Roman mosaic from Autun, 2nd century AD, Musée Rolin.

Proetus started out as king of Argos, and held the throne for about seventeen years, but Acrisius defeated him in the war and exiled him. Proetus then fled to King Jobates (Iobates) or Amphianax in Lycia, and married his daughter Antea [4] or Stheneboea. Jobates, thereupon, attempted to restore Proetus to his kingdom by armed force.
Proetus was the son-in-law of Iobates, and sent Bellerophon to him with a sealed message that asked him to kill Bellerophon. Lycia at the time was in the middle of a horrific plague and Iobates didn't want to strain the population with a war, which would surely result if he murdered Bellerophon. Instead, he sent him to kill the Chimera.
