Various accounts are given in relation to this answer. One account is he is the son of Zeus and Leda, the wife of Tyndareus. Another variation he was son to Tyndareus and Leda. Another suggests that Leda visited Zues in the form of a swan and laid an egg from which hatched the three children Castor, Polydeuces and Helen, therefore making them immortal.

The Disocuri were Castor and Polydeuces (or Pollux), the twin sons of Leda and Zeus and the brothers of Helen of Troy. Because Zeus came to Leda in the form of a swan, they are sometimes presented as having been born from an egg. Pollux was a formidable boxer, and Castor was a great horseman. Together, they were the "Heavenly Twins," often associated with the constellation Gemini. Nov 23 05, 2:59 PM
