Europa was in Greek mythology the daughter of a Phoenician king. To abduct this goddess, Zeus disguised himself as a bull, so that he wouldn’t be recognized by Hera, and carried her to Crete.
Europa era na mitologia grega filha dum rei fenício. Para a raptar Zeus disfarçou-se de touro com a finalidade de Hera não se aperceber e levou-a para Creta.
