Definition
In Greek mythology, a king of Thessaly whose wife Alcestis sacrificed her life to save him, later rescued by Heracles.
Etymology
From Greek mythology; the name Admetus (Ἄδμητος) derives from Greek roots meaning 'untamed' or 'unconquered.' The mythological tale became famous through Euripides' play 'Alcestis,' one of the earliest surviving Greek dramas.
Kelly Says
The story of Admetus is wild—his wife literally dies so he can live longer, then Heracles wrestles Death itself to bring her back. It's ancient Greek exploring ideas about love, obligation, and what we'd sacrifice for others.
