Milye in the context of Cragus (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Praxidice or Praxidike (Ancient Greek: Πραξιδίκη, [praksidíkɛː], lit. "Applied Justice") may refer to the following characters:

• Praxidice, goddess of judicial punishment and the exactor of vengeance, which were two closely allied concepts in the classical Greek world-view.
• Praxidice, according to the Orphic Hymn to Persephone, was an epithet of Persephone: "Praxidike, subterranean queen. The Eumenides' source [mother], fair-haired, whose frame proceeds from Zeus' ineffable and secret seeds." As praxis "practice, application" of dike "justice", she is sometimes identified with Dike, goddess of justice.
• Praxidice, according to Stephanus of Byzantium, a daughter of Ogygus named Praxidike, married to Tremiles (after whom Lycia had been previously named Tremile) and had by him four sons: Tlos, Xanthus, Pinarus and Cragus. In one account, all sons were mentioned except Xanthus to be the progeny of Praxidice and Tremilus. Of them, Tlos had a Lycian city named Tlos after himself. Cragus may be identical with the figure of the same name mentioned as the husband of Milye, sister of Solymus.

In Greek mythology, Solymus or Solymos (Ancient Greek: Σολύμου) may refer to two individuals:

• Solymus, an ancestral hero and eponym of the Solymi, who inhabited Milyas (i.e the area around Solyma), in south-west Anatolia. He was a son of either Ares and Caldene, daughter of Pisidus (probably the eponym of Pisidia), or of Zeus and Chaldene, Calchedonia or Chalcea "the nymph". Solymus was said to have married his own sister Milye, also a local eponymous heroine. Milye's second husband was named Cragus, presumed eponym of the city Cragus or Mount Cragus. It is unclear whether the name Solymus was derived from a mountain by the same name (now known as Güllük Dağ) in Anatolia, or vice versa.
• Solymus, mentioned by Ovid as a Phrygian companion of Aeneas and eponym of Sulmona.
