Angelos was raised by nymphs to whose care her father had entrusted her. One day she stole her mother Hera s anointments and gave them away to Europa mythology Europe . To escape Hera s wrath, she had to hide first in the house of a woman in labor, and next among people who were carrying a dead man. Hera eventually ceased from prosecuting her, and Zeus ordered the Cabeiroi to cleanse Angelos. They performed the purification rite in the waters of the Acherusia Lake in the Greek underworld Underworld .
