She was the mother of the hero Perseus by Zeus . She was credited with founding the city of Ardea in Latium during the Bronze Age . </P> <P> Disappointed by his lack of male heirs, King Acrisius asked the oracle of Delphi if this would change . The oracle announced to him that he would never have a son, but his daughter would, and that he would be killed by his daughter's son . At the time, Danae was childless and, meaning to keep her so, King Acrisius shut her up in a bronze chamber to be constructed under the court of his palace (other versions say she was imprisoned in a tall brass tower with a single richly adorned chamber, but with no doors or windows, just a sky - light as the source of light and air). She was buried in this tomb, never to see the light again . However, Zeus, the king of the gods, desired her, and came to her in the form of golden rain which streamed in through the roof of the subterranean chamber and down into her womb . Soon after, their child Perseus was born . </P>
