In [[Greek mythology]], the '''''Argo''''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|ɑr|g|oʊ|audio=LL-Q1860 (eng)-Naomi Persephone Amethyst (NaomiAmethyst)-Argo.wav}} {{respell|AR|goh}}; {{langx|grc|Ἀργώ|Argṓ}}) was the ship of [[Jason]] and the [[Argonauts]]. The ship was built with divine aid, and some ancient sources describe her as the first ship to sail the seas. The ''Argo'' carried the Argonauts on their quest for the [[Golden Fleece]] from [[Iolcos]] to [[Colchis]]. After the journey, the ship was retired and dedicated to [[Poseidon]], the divine ruler of the seas.

The ship has gone on to be used as a motif in a variety of sources beyond the original [[myth]] from books, films and more.
