Autochthon (ancient Greece) in the context of Indigenous inhabitants

In Greek mythology, the Minyans or Minyae (Greek: Μινύες, Minyes) were a group of legendary people who were the inhabitants of the city Orchomenus in Boeotia, and who were also associated with Thessaly. They were named after their eponymous ancestor, Minyas.

In archaeology, the term "Minyans" has been applied to the Minyan ware excavated from Orchomenus, and is used to refer to an autochthonous group of Proto-Greek speakers inhabiting the Aegean region, though the degree to which the material culture in the prehistory of the area can be securely linked to the legendary people or language-based ethnicity has been subjected to debate and repeated revision.

Baubo (Ancient Greek: Βαυβώ) is a minor figure in Greek mythology who does not appear in surviving sources before the fourth century BCE. A fragment from Asclepiades of Tragilus states that she is the wife of Dysaules, who was said to be autochthonous; that they had two daughters, Protonoe and Misa; and that the couple welcomed Demeter into their house.

The fifth century CE Greek grammarian Hesychius recorded the name Baubo in his lexicon, stating that she was the nurse of Demeter. He gives the meaning of the word as 'hollow' or 'stomach' (κοιλίαν, koilian), citing the fifth century BCE philosopher Empedocles as a source.

In Greek mythology, Aras (Ancient Greek: Ἄραντά or Ἄραντός ) was an autochthon who was believed to have built Arantea, the most ancient town in Phliasia, Peloponnese.

In Greek mythology, King Erichthonius (/ərɪkˈθoʊniəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἐριχθόνιος, romanized: Erikhthónios) was a legendary early ruler of ancient Athens. According to some myths, he was autochthonous (born of the soil, or Earth) and adopted or raised by the goddess Athena. Early Greek texts do not distinguish between him and Erechtheus, his grandson, but by the fourth century BC, during Classical times, they are distinct figures.

In Greek mythology, Polybule was the Boeotian mother of the Argonaut Leitus by Alector. Alternatively, Leitus parents were identified to be Lacritus and Cleobule or an earth-born, thus a son of Gaea.

In Greek mythology, the name Cleobule, Cleoboule, Kleobule or Kleoboule (Ancient Greek: Κλεοβούλη, Kleoboúlē) or Cleobula refers to:

• Cleobule, daughter of Aeolus or Aeopolus, one of the possible mothers of Myrtilus by Hermes.
• Cleobule, wife of Aleus of Tegea, mother of Cepheus and Amphidamas.
• Cleobula, mother by Ares of Cycnus who was killed by Heracles.
• Cleobule, mother of Amphimachus by Cteatus instead of Theronice.
• Cleobule, mother of Leonteus by Coronus.
• Cleobule, daughter of Eurytus and by Tenthredon, possibly the mother of Prothous, leader of the Magnesians during the Trojan War. Otherwise, Eurymache was called the mother of the Prothous.
• Cleobule, mother of Phoenix by Amyntor. Otherwise, Hippodameia or Alcimede was called the mother). Cleobule had two other possible children by Amyntor, Asydameia and Crantor. Cleobule was jealous of Amyntor's love for his concubine, Clytie or Phthia, so she convinced her son Phoenix to sleep with her, but when Amyntor found out, he cursed Phoenix with sterility.
• Cleobule, the Boeotian mother of Leitus by Lacritus; alternately, mother of Arcesilaus by Alector (Alectryon). Otherwise, Leitus' mother was Polybule by Alector or he was an earth-born, thus a son of Gaea. Meanwhile, Arcesilaus' parents were Areilycus and Theobule.
• Cleobule, mother of the tragedian Euripides by Apollo, as stated by Hyginus. Whether this is an otherwise unknown legend or simply the result of corruption of the text is uncertain.

In Greek mythology, Lacritus (Ancient Greek: Λάκριτος) was the Boeotian father of the Argonaut Leitus and Clonius by Cleobule. Otherwise, Leitus was called the son of Alector and Polybule or simply he was an earth-born, thus a son of Gaea. Meanwhile, in some accounts, Clonius' parents was/were (1) Alegenor, or of (2) Alector and Acteis instead.

In Greek mythology, the name Caucon (/ˈkɔːkən, ˈkɔːkɒn/; Ancient Greek: Καύκων) may refer to:

• Caucon, an Arcadian prince as one of the 50 sons of the impious King Lycaon either by the naiad Cyllene, Nonacris or by unknown woman. He was an ancestral hero and eponym of the Caucones that were believed to have settled in Triphylia. His tomb was shown at Lepreus, with a statue of a man with a lyre standing over it. Other traditions made him son of Poseidon and father of Lepreus by Astydameia. Caucon and his brothers were the most nefarious and carefree of all people. To test them, Zeus visited them in the form of a peasant. These brothers mixed the entrails of a child into the god's meal, whereupon the enraged Zeus threw the meal over the table. Caucon was killed, along with his brothers and their father, by a lightning bolt of the god.
• Caucon, son of Celaenus and grandson of the autochthon Phlyus, from Eleusis. He was said to have brought the rites of the Great Goddesses from Eleusis to Andania in Messene. Legend had it that he appeared to Epaminondas in a dream, prophesying him success in restoration of the Messenian state; the Messenian allies of Epaminondas offered sacrifices to Caucon.

In Greek mythology, Mynes (Ancient Greek: Μύνης means "diverting") may refer to two individuals:

• Mynes, the Lacedamonian father of Pedias, wife of the autochthonous King Cranaus of Athens, who bore him three daughters: Cranaë, Cranaechme, and Atthis.
• Mynes, king of the city of Lyrnessus which was sacked by Achilles, who there captured his wife, Briseis. Mynes was son of King Evenus, son of Selepus.
