Amazons (Infinity Comics)

The Amazons are a group of women based on the Amazons of Greek mythology. It is was the home of Arita.

History
Themiscyra was founded by the God of War Ares and Otrera, who became the first Amazon queen. Their daughter, Hippolyta, killed Otrera to take over as queen. This led to a war between her and her sisters Antiope and Melanippe who wanted the throne for themselves.

Sometime during this war, Heracles visited the Amazons to take the girdle as part of his ninth labour.

At some point the numerous defeats the Amazons suffered led them to believe men were the superior sex (a 180 from their original belief system). They allied themselves to the Egyptian god Isis who turned them into men.
