Eurytus of Oechalia in the context of "Clytius"

In Greek mythology, Deioneus (/daɪˈoʊniːəs/; Ancient Greek: Δηιονεύς means "ravager") or Deion (/ˈdaɪ.ɒn/; Ancient Greek: Δηίων) is a name attributed to the following individuals:

• Deioneus, king of Phocis and son of King Aeolus of Aeolia and Enarete, daughter of Deimachus. He was the brother of Salmoneus, Sisyphus, Cretheus, Perieres, Athamas, Magnes, Calyce, Canace, Alcyone, Pisidice and Perimede. By Diomede, Deioneus became the father of Cephalus, Actor, Aenetus, Phylacus, Asterodia and Philonis. After the death of his brother, Salmoneus, Deioneus took his daughter Tyro into his house, and gave her in marriage to Cretheus.
• Deioneus, the Perrhaebian father of Dia and father-in-law-to-be of Ixion, Deioneus was pushed by him into a bed of flaming coals so that Ixion wouldn't have to pay the bride price. Also known as Eioneus.
• Deion, father of Nisus, king of Megara. Otherwise, the latter was called the son of Pandion II or Ares.
• Deioneus, an Oeachalian prince as son of King Eurytus and Antiope or Antioche, and thus brother to Iole, Toxeus, Clytius, Didaeon and Iphitos. He married Perigune, daughter of Sinis, whose father was killed by Theseus.
• Deioneus, one of the sons of Heracles and Megara.

In Greek mythology, Iole (/ˈaɪ.əli/; Ancient Greek: Ἰόλη [iólɛː]) was the daughter of King Eurytus of Oechalia. According to the brief epitome in the Bibliotheca, Eurytus had a beautiful young daughter named Iole who was eligible for marriage. Iole was claimed by Heracles for a bride, but Eurytus refused her hand in marriage. Iole was indirectly the cause of Heracles' death because of his wife's jealousy of her.

There are different versions of the mythology of Iole from many ancient sources. The Bibliotheca gives the most complete story followed by slight variations of this from Seneca and Ovid. Other ancient sources (i.e. Diodorus Siculus, Gaius Julius Hyginus, and Pseudo-Plutarch) have similar information on Iole with additional variations.

In Greek mythology, Hippasus or Hippasos (Ancient Greek: Ἴππασος) is the name of fourteen characters.

• Hippasus, son of King Eurytus of Oechalia and one of the hunters of the Calydonian Boar.
• Hippasus from the Pellene district of the Peloponnese, father of Actor, Iphitus, Asterion, Amphion, and Naubolus. The latter four are otherwise ascribed different parentage.
• Hippasus, a Centaur. Killed by Theseus at the wedding of Pirithous and Hippodamia.
• Hippasus, a Trojan prince as one of the sons of Priam.
• Hippasus, a Thessalian killed by Agenor in the Trojan War.
• Hippasus, son of King Ceyx of Trachis and possibly, Alcyone, daughter of Aeolus, and thus, brother to Hylas, favorite of Heracles and Themistonoe, wife of Cycnus. Hippasus was killed in battle whilst fighting alongside Heracles against King Eurytus of Oechalia.
• Hippasus, son of Leucippe, one of the Minyades. He was killed by his mother and her sisters.
• Hippasus from Phlius opposed his fellow citizens, who wished to accede to the wishes of the Dorian Rhegnidas and make him their king. He and his fellow supporters fled to Samos. Hippasus is the ancestor of the philosopher Pythagoras, Pythagoras being the son of Mnesarchus, the son of Euphranor, the son of Hippasus.
• Hippasus, name shared by fathers of several heroes of the Trojan War:
  • of Hippomedon by the nymph Ocyrrhoe
  • of Charops and Socus
  • of Agelaus the Milesian
  • of Coeranus the Lycian
  • of Hypsenor
  • of Demoleon the Lacedaemonian
  • of Apisaon the Paeonian
  • of two nameless - only known by the patronymic Hippasides – charioteers:
    • the charioteer of Pammon (the son of Priam)
    • a Greek charioteer killed by Deiphobus.

In Greek mythology, the name Toxeus or Toxius (Ancient Greek: Τοξεύς, romanized: Toxeús, lit. 'bowman') refers to the following individuals:

• Toxius, son of Caelus (Uranus) who was the inventor of building with clay, it having been suggested to him from swallows' nests.
• Toxeus, a Pleuronian prince as the son of King Thestius and thus, brother of Althaea. He participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar but was angry that the prize of the boar's hide had been given to a woman (Atalanta) by his nephew Meleager, who then killed him in the ensuing argument.
• Toxeus, a Calydonian prince as the son of King Oeneus and Althaea (which makes him a nephew of the above Toxeus). He was the brother of Meleager, Clymenus, Periphas, Agelaus (or Ageleus), Thyreus (or Phereus or Pheres), Deianeira, Gorge, Eurymede and Melanippe. Toxeus was killed by his father for leaping over the trench which had been dug around Calydon. (This is paralleled by Remus overleaping that of Rōmulus. Cf. also the story of Poemander).
• Toxeus, an Oechalian prince as son of King Eurytus and Antiope or Antioche and brother of Clytius and Molion. All three were slain by Heracles. His other siblings were Iole, Deioneus, Didaeon and Iphitos.

Iphitos or Īphitus (/ˈɪfɪtəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἴφιτος) is the name of six individuals in Greek mythology.

• Iphitos, son of Eurytus, king of Oechalia. As Iole's brother, he was Heracles' brother-in-law and, according to one version of the myth, also his lover.
• Iphitos, son of Naubolus and king of Phocis, others say his father was the son of Hippasus from Peloponessus. He entertained Jason when he consulted the Delphic Oracle and later joined the Argonauts. Iphitus was an ally of the Thebans in the war of the Seven against Thebes. He was the leader of men from Phocis and the cities of Panope, Daulis, Cyparissos, Lebadia and Hyampolis during the war. By his wife Hippolyte or Thrasybule, Iphitos became the father of Schedius and Epistrophus who led the Phocians in the Trojan War.
• Iphitos, an Elean who was killed by Copreus, son of Pelops, who fled from Elis after the murder and later on was purified by King Eurystheus in Mycenae. According to the writer Alcman, Iphitos along with Lycurgus, belonged to the participants in the first Olympic Games.
• Iphitus, father of Eurynome, who was the mother of King Adrastus of Argos, one of the Seven against Thebes.
• Iphitos, an elderly Trojan during the Trojan War. In Book VIII of the Iliad, his son Archeptolemus suddenly becomes the charioteer of Hector when Eniopeus was killed by Diomedes. However, Teucer killed him in the same battle. In Aeneid Book II, Aeneas named Iphitos among half a dozen Trojan heroes who fight by his side during the fall of Troy. When the battle turned against them, Iphitos was the only one of these who remained standing. He was apparently by Aeneas's side until King Priam was killed. In some accounts, Iphitos was also the father of Coeranus who was killed by Odysseus.
• Iphitos, king of Elis, restored the Olympic Games after the Dorian invasion. The restoration came after he asked the Oracle at Delphi about what should be done to save Greece from civil war and the diseases that were killing the population. The Oracle answered: "Iphitos and the people of Elis must declare a sacred truce for the duration of the game and revive the Olympic Games".

In Greek mythology, Didaeon was an Oechalian prince as son of King Eurytus and Antiope or Antioche and brother of Clytius, Toxeus, Iphitos, Deioneus, Molion and Iole.
