RHADAMANTHUS (Gr. Rhadamanthys)  , in Greek mythology, son of Zeus and Europa and brother of Minos, king of Crete . Driven out of Crete by his brother, who was jealous of his popularity, he fled to Boeotia, where he wedded Alcmene . Homer represents him as dwelling in the Elysian fields (Odyssey, iv . 564) . According to later legends, on account of his in-flexible integrity he was made one of the judges of the dead in the lower world, together with Aeacus and Minos . He was supposed to judge the souls of Asiatics, Aeacus those of Europeans, while Minos had the casting vote (Plato, Gorgias, 4244) .
