The robber who was killed by Theseus.
When Theseus came to the coastal city of Megara, he met the semi-divine man, Skiron, who would force travelers to wash his feet and then kick them from a cliff into the sea to be eaten by a giant sea-turtle which waited on the rocky shore; Theseus threw Skiron to his death from the cliff.
