In Greek mythology, [[Tiresias]] (/taɪˈriːsiəs/; Greek: [[Τειρεσίας]], [[Teiresias]]) was a blind [[prophet]] of Apollo in [[Thebes]], famous for clairvoyance and for being transformed into a woman for seven years. He was the son of the shepherd Everes and the nymph Chariclo. Tiresias participated fully in seven generations in Thebes, beginning as advisor to Cadmus himself. | |||
