Cleobule in the context of "Tragedian"

Alector (/əˈlɛktər/; Ancient Greek: Ἀλέκτωρ) refers to more than one person in classical mythology and history:

• Alector, son of Magnes and Meliboea, eponyms of Magnesia and the town of Meliboea respectively.
• Alector, the Boeotian father of Leitus. Homer calls him "Alectryon", and Diodorus "Electryon", naming him among the sons of Itonus. According to Tzetzes, Alector was also the father of Clonius, Arcesilaus and Prothoenor (his nephews according to Diodorus) by different mothers: he is said to have fathered Leitus with Polybule, Arcesilaus with Cleobule, Prothoenor with Arteis, and Clonius with Acteis.
• Alector, an Elean prince as the son of King Epeius, and brother of Hyrmine. Later on, he succeeded his father on the throne of Elis but in fear of the overlordship of King Pelops of Pisa, he summoned Phorbas from Olenus to his aid and gave his new ally a share of the kingdom. By Phorbas’ daughter, Diogeneia, Alector became father of Amarynceus.
• Alector, the Argive son of Anaxagoras and father of King Iphis of Argos.
• Alector of Sparta, son of Argeus (son of Pelops) and Hegesandra, daughter of King Amyclas. He has two brothers, Melanion and Boethoos. Alector was the father of Iphiloche (or Echemela), who married Megapenthes, son of Menelaus.

In Greek mythology, the name Clonius (/ˈkloʊniəs/; Ancient Greek: Κλονίος, Kloníos) may refer to:

• Clonius, one of the Achaean leaders in the Trojan War, son of either Alegenor, or of Alector and Acteis, or of Lacritus and Cleobule, and in the latter case brother of Leitus; he came from Boeotia and commanded nine ships. He was killed by Agenor.

• Clonius, a companion of Aeneas, who was killed by Turnus.
• Clonius, another companion of Aeneas, who was killed by Messapus.

In Greek mythology, Astydamea or Astydamia (/əˌstɪdəˈmiːə/; Ancient Greek: Ἀστυδάμεια Astudámeia, derived from ἄστυ ástu, "town", and δαμάω damáo, "to tame") is a name attributed to several individuals:

• Astydamia, also known as Hippolyta, daughter of Cretheus and queen of Iolcus as the wife of Acastus. Her husband purified Peleus of the murder of King Eurytion of Phthia. Astydameia fell in love with Peleus but he scorned her, so she told Acastus that Peleus had tried to rape her. Acastus took Peleus on hunting trip and left him unprotected to a Centaurs attacked. Peleus escaped death and later pillaged Iolcus and killed Astydamea.
• Astydamea, daughter of Pelops and Hippodamia. She married Alcaeus and had Amphitryon and Anaxo by him. In other accounts, the wife of Alcaeus was named Hipponome, daughter of Menoeceus or Laonome, daughter of Guneus.
• Astydamea, daughter of Phorbas and mother of Lepreus by Caucon, son of Poseidon. She persuaded Heracles to reconcile with her son, who had previously advised Augeas to cast Heracles in bonds.
• Astydamea, mother of Ctesippus by Heracles. In one source, she was the daughter of Amyntor, possibly by Kleoboule or Hippodameia. Another account makes her the daughter of Ormenus, king of Ormenion. Heracles, the same source relates, wooed her, but Ormenius would not marry her to him since Heracles was already married to Deianira. Heracles then led a war against Ormenius, killed him and took Astydameia by force. Astydameia (or Astygeneia) is also an alternate name for Astyoche, daughter of Phylas, who bore Heracles a son Tlepolemus.
• Astydamea, was briefly mentioned by a scholiast on Euripides as the daughter of Strophius and Cydragora and sister of Pylades.

In Greek mythology, Hippodamia, Hippodamea or Hippodameia (/ˌhɪpɒdəˈmaɪ.ə/; Ancient Greek: Ἱπποδάμεια, "she who masters horses" derived from ἵππος hippos "horse" and δαμάζειν damazein "to tame") may refer to these female characters:

• Hippodamia, daughter of Oenomaus, and wife of Pelops.
• Hippodamia, wife of Pirithous and daughter of Atrax or Butes.
• Hippodamia, wife of Autonous and mother of Anthus.
• Hippodamia, daughter of Anicetus who consorted with Zeus.
• Hippodamia, name shared by two of the Danaïdes, daughters of King Danaus of Libya either by the hamadryads, Atlanteia or Phoebe. One of them married and killed her husband Istrus and the other Diocorystes. These princes were sons of King Aegyptus of Egypt and an Arabian woman. Either of these two Hippodamia became the mother of Olenus by Zeus.
• Hippodamia, also known as Laodamia or Deidamia, daughter of the hero Bellerophon and Philonoe, daughter of the Lycian king Iobates. She was said to mothered Sarpedon by the god Zeus.

In Greek mythology, Myrtilus (Ancient Greek: Μυρτίλος) was a divine hero and son of Hermes. His mother is said variously to be the Amazon Myrto; Phaethusa, daughter of Danaus; or a nymph or mortal woman named Clytie, Clymene or Cleobule (Theobule). Myrtilus was the charioteer of King Oenomaus of Pisa in Elis, on the northwest coast of the Peloponnesus.

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, Acteis (Ancient Greek: Άκτηἶδοζ Akteϊs) was the mother by Alector of Clonius. The latter was one of the Boeotian leaders in the Trojan War. Otherwise, the parents of Clonius was/were (1) Alegenor; or (2) Lacritus and Cleobule.

In Greek mythology, the name Theobule (Ancient Greek: Θεοβούλη from θεός + βούλλα 'divine will' or 'divine counsel') refers to:

• Theobule, mother of Myrtilus by Hermes.
• Theobula, mother of Arcesilaus and Prothoenor by Areilycus (Archilycus). Their son was one of the Boeotian leaders in the Trojan War. In one account, Alector was the father of Arcesilaus by Cleobule and Prothoenor by Arteis.

This name was also thought to have given rise to Sibyl by Varro, a Roman man of letters. The historian Jerome similarly explained Theobule as the Attic form of the Doric Σιοβόλλα (Siobolla), a variant of Sibulla (Sibyl in Greek)

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.
