Greek miracle worker Aristaeus, who was resurrected before Jesus Christians believe that Jesus rose from the dead. However, in the history of mythology, Jesus Christ is not the first to rise from the dead. Before him, there were many characters who made a similar journey from the underworld to the world of people. In this article, I would like to draw attention to the semi-legendary miracle worker and poet Aristaeus from Proconnes. Herodotus writes about him in the fourth book of "Melpomene" of the treatise "History" (https://bit.ly/39lJRlL). Aristaeus lived around the 7th-6th century BC. Herodotus writes that he was the son of Caistrobius of Proconnese (western territory of modern Turkey). Aristaeus wrote poems, it was he who first reported on the Hyperboreans. One day Aristaeus went into the fuller's shop and died. The owner locked the workshop and ran to tell the relatives of Aristaeus about the tragedy. Rumors of death spread throughout the city. But a certain person from the city of Artaki disputed the rumors. He said that he saw Aristaeus on the way to the city of Cyzicus, and even communicated with him. When relatives came to the fuller's workshop with the necessary utensils for burial. The doors were opened, but Aristaeus was not there. Seven years later, Aristaeus appeared in Prokonnes and composed the poem "The Epic of the Arimaspians", then disappeared again. After 240 years in southern Italy, in the city of Metapont, Aristaeus appeared to the locals and ordered them to erect an altar to Apollo, and next to him put a statue with the name of Aristeas. After the spoken words, Aristaeus disappeared again. Aristaeus was not crucified or tortured for the sins of people, but in ancient Greek mythology he appears in the form of a miracle worker, like Jesus. The circumstances of the resurrection of Aristaeus coincide with the story of Jesus. His body disappeared from the premises, like the body of Jesus from the tomb. Then he returned to tell people about the Arimaspians, a mysterious Hyperborean people who fight griffins. The purpose of the first return of Aristaeus does not coincide with the gospel story, but the second return to the "God's chosen people" has parallels with the coming of Jesus. Aristaeus, as a servant and messenger of Apollo, came to the Metapontians and ordered them to build an altar.
