Description acceptable. A mythical king identified as one of these figures due to his manner of birth had the epithet “Geminus” and substituted cakes called pelanoi for blood sacrifices. Plato claimed rulers of Atlantis were descended from Evenor, one of these figures. Six-armed giants named for their status as these figures shared an island with the Doliones in the Argonautica. These types of figures, which are not defined by a physical characteristic, were referenced in cicada pins reflecting a people’s belief in their origin from these figures, tying (*) Athenians to Attica from time immemorial. The Spartoi are this type of figure due to their appearance after dragon’s teeth were sown. The daughters of Cecrops fostered a half-serpentine king who was one of these figures due to his birth after Athena brushed semen from her thigh. For 10 points, Erichthoneus was what kind of figure based on his origin from Gaia? ■END■
ANSWER: autochthonous [accept earth-born or descriptions indicating born from the earth; accept synonyms like dirt or soil or Gaia until read for “earth”; accept sprung up from the earth; accept gegenes; prompt on answers indicating being born from dragon teeth before mention with “what more general manner of birth is this?”; reject “chthonic”]
