Aristaeus

A minor god in Greek mythology, Aristaeus was the culture hero credited with the discovery of many useful arts, including bee-keeping, cheese-making, olive growing, hunting and shepherding. His name was derived from the Greek word aristos, "most excellent" or "most useful."
Generally when claimed, bees appear and fly around the demigod.
