Planctae Planctae

Planctae - Definition and Overview

In Greek mythology, the Planctae ("wandering rocks") were a group of rocks, between which the sea was mercilessly violent. The Argo (led by Jason) was the only ship to navigate them successfully (with divine help from Hera, Thetis and the Nereids). Jason chose to brave the Planctae instead of Scylla and Charybdis.
