An author of this name is credited with such no-longer-extant tragedies as The Sentinels and Mega Drama, as well as the philosophical work Triagmos. In a work by this name, one character successfully avoids death by identifying a golden snake bauble, a still-fresh circlet of olive branches, and a woven cloth with a Gorgon on it. That play of this name opens with a prologue from Hermes and sees a plot revealed when a flock of doves die after drinking from the title figure's wineglass, which had been poisoned with Gorgon blood. This play's title character is (*) adopted after the prophet Trophonius convinces the title character's adoptive father that he won't leave Delphi without a child, and the dea ex machina ending sees Athena convince that title character and his mother not to reveal his true parentage to Xuthus. For 10 points, give the name shared by an author from Chios and a play about the titular King of Athens, a son of Creusa and Apollo, which was written by Euripides.
