It relates the plight of the Saite Pharaoh Psammetichus I ( Psamtik ) ( c. 664-610 ) of the Twenty-sixth dynasty of Egypt overthrown and in desperation, seeking the advice of the Oracle of Leto at Buto who cryptically advises him to enlist the aid of " brazen men " who would " come from the sea.

Leto I

Apollo is the son of Zeus and Leto, and has a twin sister, the chaste huntress Artemis.

It is also stated that Hera kidnapped Eileithyia, the goddess of childbirth, to prevent Leto from going into labor.

Leto arranges for Fremen leader Stilgar to protect his sister if there is an attempt on their lives.

The seemingly immortal and omnipotent Leto is left as Emperor of the Known Universe, with Ghanima at his side.

The Baron's intent to exterminate the Atreides line seems close to fruition as Duke Leto Atreides is lured to the desert planet Arrakis on the pretense of taking over the valuable melange operation there.

The Baron's most prominent political rival is Duke Leto Atreides ; the Harkonnens and the Atreides have been bitter enemies for millennia, since the Battle of Corrin that ended the Butlerian Jihad.

The Baron, Duke Leto, and Jessica herself are unaware that Jessica is secretly the Baron's daughter or that he has even fathered one ; in the year 10, 176, the Baron's grandson Paul is born to Leto and Jessica.

When the tooth is crushed, intended victim Baron Harkonnen escapes, but Leto and De Vries die.

Fifteen hundred years have passed since the 3, 500-year reign of the God Emperor Leto Atreides II ended with his assassination ; humanity is firmly on the Golden Path, Leto's plan to save mankind from destruction.

In Greek mythology, Leto ( Greek:, Latō in Dorian Greek, etymology and meaning disputed ) is a daughter of the Titans Coeus and Phoebe and the sister of Asteria.

In the Olympian scheme, Zeus is father of her twins, Apollo and Artemis, the Letoides, which Leto conceived after her hidden beauty accidentally caught the eyes of Zeus.

For the classical Greeks, Leto is scarcely to be conceived apart from being pregnant and finding a place to be delivered of Apollo and Artemis, for Hera being jealous, made it so all lands shunned her.

This is her one active mythic role: once Apollo and Artemis are grown, Leto withdraws, to remain a dim and benevolent matronly figure upon Olympus, her part already played.

Antoninus Liberalis is not alone in hinting that Leto came down from the land of the Hyperboreans in the guise of a she-wolf, or that she sought out the " wolf-country " of Lycia, formerly called Tremilis, which she renamed to honour wolves that had befriended her for her denning.

It is remarkable that Leto brought forth Artemis, the elder twin, without travail, as Callimachus wrote, as if she were merely revealing another manifestation of herself.

Veneration of a local Leto is attested at Phaistos ( where it is purported that she gave birth to Apollo and Artemis at the islands known today as the Paximadia ( also known as Letoai in ancient Crete ) and at Lato, which bore her name .< ref > Noted by R. F.

The art is not eliminated, however, surviving through underground schools ; notably, the Bene Gesserit preserve the art, assuming that Leto knows of this ( through his prescience ) and approves.

In Dune ( 1965 ), Paul is fifteen years old ; the Padishah Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV orders the family to leave Caladan and govern the desert planet Arrakis ( known as Dune ), though Paul's father Duke Leto is in full knowledge that the Emperor is colluding with House Harkonnen to destroy the Atreides as a perceived threat to the throne.

The meaning of the epithet " Lyceus " later became associated Apollo's mother Leto, who was the patron goddes of Lycia ( Λυκία ) and who was identified with the wolf ( λύκος ), earning him the epithets Lycegenes ( ; Λυκηγενής, Lukēgenēs, literally " born of a wolf " or " born of Lycia ") and Lycoctonus ( ; Λυκοκτόνος, Lukoktonos, from λύκος, " wolf ", and κτείνειν, " to kill ").

Mythographers agree that Artemis was born first and then assisted with the birth of Apollo, or that Artemis was born one day before Apollo, on the island of Ortygia and that she helped Leto cross the sea to Delos the next day to give birth to Apollo.

Another variation states that Artemis was born one day before Apollo, on the island of Ortygia and that she helped Leto cross the sea to Delos the next day to give birth to Apollo.

Another version, in the Homeric Hymn to Delian Apollo and in an Orphic hymn, states that Artemis was born before Apollo, on the island of Ortygia, and that she helped Leto cross the sea to Delos the next day to give birth there to Apollo.

In Greek mythology, the Niobids were the children of Amphion of Thebes and Niobe, slain by Apollo and Artemis because Niobe, born of the royal house of Phrygia, had boastfully compared the greater number of her own offspring with those of Leto, Apollo's and Artemis ' mother: a classic example of hubris.

In Dune, the Bene Gesserit breeding scheme is, in theory, to have come to full fruition from the union of an Atreides daughter ( planned to be born of the Bene Gesserit Lady Jessica and the Duke Leto Atreides ) and Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, nephew of the Baron Vladimir Harkonnen ( himself secretly the natural father of the Lady Jessica ).

Paul's son Leto II ( born of Chani, daughter of Liet-Kynes, and Paul ) is also a Kwisatz Haderach ; seeing the same future, Leto decides to do what his father could not.
