一个代表Meleager和Atalanta的领头雕塑,伴有一只丘比特人和一只狗,并用爪子指着野猪的头. 欧内乌斯和阿尔泰亚之子梅莱格的神话有多种版本,与"卡利多尼亚野猪猎"一集相接,在"荷马的伊利亚德"第九部,"巴奇利德斯的活"(Bacchylides' V Epinicians)和"奥维德的地表变形人"(Metamorphoses)中均有叙述. 该神话讲述了莫伊拉人或帕尔凯人(The Fates)如何预先警告他的母亲,当他七天大的时候,梅利埃格的命运和正在被烧的木头密不可分地联系在一起. 如果被烧成灰烬,孩子就会死去. Althaea惊慌失措地立即将原木放出,将原木藏入胸口数年. 当他长大并成为一个男人时,梅利埃格感到有义务释放出他的国家卡利登(Calydon)一头正在破坏其田地的可怕的野猪,召唤出各种英雄,包括美丽的猎人阿塔兰特(Atalanta)——阿尔卡迪亚国王的女儿,在霍斯克的叙事中是不会被发现的 — — 他与他相爱. Meleager不得不克服其他一些拒绝与女性并肩作战的英雄的反抗. 他最终以巨大的代价说服了他们,而阿塔兰特事实上是第一个将野猪弄伤的人,虽然梅利格享受了杀死野猪的荣耀. 这使他获得了获得动物战利品的权利,他给了阿塔兰特以示尊重。 他的叔父们立即声称他们应该是拥有遗体的人,因为他们是他最亲近的亲戚,但梅利埃格最终杀死了他们. Althaea对这起谋杀案感到愤怒, 后来,她意识到自己在愤怒的时刻所做的事,于是后悔地自杀了.
