I.Overview
In Greek mythology, Creusa (Ancient Greek: Κρέουσα, Kreousa, "princess") or Glauce (Γλαυκή, "blue-gray"), Latin Glauca, was a princess of Corinth as the daughter of King Creon.
II.Mythology
In favor of Creusa, Jason abandoned Medea. In the version of the myth commonly followed by ancient tragedians, Medea obtained her revenge by giving Creusa a dress that had been cursed by the sorceress.
