Hero that answered the riddle of the sphinx?
In Ancient Greek Mythology, A sphinx guarded a road. It let no food or water into the town. He said a riddle: WHOEVER CAN ANSWER THIS WILL BECOME KING! AND I WILL LEAVE YOUR TOWN! Many were puzzled, until a man came along and asked what the riddle was. The sphinx said: WHAT WALKS ON FOUR LEGS IN THE MORNING, TWO LEGS IN THE MID DAY, AND THREE LEGS AT EVENING? The brave man chuckled and said: That's and easy one, its man. Four legs as a baby, two legs as adult, and two legs with a cane at old age. The sphinx let out a huge roar, and ran to the next town. The man became king of the town and the Sphinx never returned. I hope this was helpful!

What is the myth behind the sphinx?
the sphinx was created to ward off evil spirits while the spirit passed on to the other side it is said it was the guardian and protector of the innoncent it was destroyed by germans -------------------------- The Myth of the Sphinx is that he was guardian of a valley which a hero had to pass through on a quest; it was known to ask riddles and devour anyone who couldn't answer the question. This is a (very) old story and there are several versions of this tale in which the Sphinx has different aspects although the riddle always remains the same. The real world statue of the Sphinx near the Pyramids is often linked to the Egyptian god Anubis (guardian of the Underworld) so in some stories the hero is on a journey to bring a loved one back from the land of the dead although sometimes it is mere treasure or glory that he is looking for. The riddle goes along the lines of: "What walks on four legs in the morning, two during the day, and three at night?" The answer is man as it represents the three stages of human life. A baby crawls on all fours, an adult walks and an old man walks with a stick.
