The Grave of Laios was the location where the King Laios of Thebes–the father of Oedipous–was slain by his son and subsequently buried.
Located on the slopes of Grand Mount Parnassos in Phokis, northwest of the city of Orchomenos in Boeotia, the grave was marked by a statue of a hound.[1]
During the Peloponnesian War the tomb was visited by the Spartan misthios Kassandra.[1]
