To answer the given question: “How many men sailed as Argonauts?”, we must take into consideration various sources which claim that these people were in fact considered as Argonauts. We can pick the answer is 50. The reason for this answer is because it was stated in Greek Mythology that Argonauts are any of a band of 50 heroes who went with Jason to fetch the Golden Fleece using the ship Argo.

But since there are various sources, some claim that there were more than 80 Argonauts – some of whom are: Acastus, Actor, Admetus, Amphiaraus, Amphidamas, Ancaeus, Argus, Asterion, Atalanta, Augeas, Autolycus, Butes, Cepheus, Echion, Eribotes, Erytus and Eurytion.
