Pandion (mythology) in the context of "Pandion II"

In Greek mythology, Hephaestine (Ancient Greek: Ἡφαιστίνης) was one of the various spouses of Aegyptus, king of Egypt. By the latter, she became the mother of the youngest princes: Idas, Daiphron, Pandion, Arbelus, Hyperbius and Hippocorystes. Her sons were wed and slayed by their cousin-wives, daughters of King Danaus of Libya during their wedding night.

According to Hippostratus, Aegyptus had his progeny by a single woman called Eurryroe, daughter of the river-god Nilus. In some accounts, he consorted with Isaie, daughter of his uncle Agenor, king of Tyre.

In Greek mythology, Cleopatra (Ancient Greek: Κλεοπάτρα, romanized: Kleopátra means "glory of the father") was the name of the following women:

• Cleopatra (Danaid), daughter of Danaus.
• Cleopatra, daughter of King Tros of Troy and Callirhoe, daughter of the river-god Scamander. She was the sister of Ilus, Assaracus, Ganymede and possibly, Cleomestra. Cleopatra and Cleomestra probably refer to the same individual.
• Cleopatra, daughter of Boreas (the North wind) and the Athenian princess Orithyia, sister to the Boreads and Chione. She was the first wife of Phineus by whom he had a pair of sons, named either Plexippus and Pandion, or Gerymbas and Aspondus, or Polydector (Polydectus) and Polydorus, or Parthenius and Crambis.
• Cleopatra Alcyone, wife of Meleager.
• Cleopatra, wife of King Deucalion of Crete and mother of Idomeneus.
• Cleopatra and Periboea of Locris, two maidens sent to the Trojan temple of Athena in retribution for Ajax the Lesser's sacrilege. This was done because three years after the Locrians had regained their country, they suffered a plague. Then an oracle bade them to propitiate Athena at Troy, sending two maidens as suppliants for a thousand years. The first lot fell on Periboea and Cleopatra, and after their deaths others were sent.

In Greek mythology, Daiphron (Ancient Greek: Δαΐφρων means "warlike" or "prudent") may refer to the following Egyptian brother-princes:

• Daiphron, one of the sons of King Aegyptus of Egypt. He suffered the same fate as his other brothers, save Lynceus, when they were slain on their wedding night by their wives who obeyed the command of their father King Danaus of Libya. Daiphron was the son of Aegyptus by Argyphia, a woman of royal blood and thus full brother of Lynceus, Proteus, Busiris, Lycus and Enceladus. He married the Danaid Scaea, daughter of Danaus and Europe.
• Daiphron, one of the youngest sons of Aegyptus and thus, brother of the above-mentioned character. His mother was called Hephaestine and brother to Idas, Pandion, Arbelus, Hyperbius, Hippocorystes. Daiphron married the Danaid Adiante who also killed him during their wedding night following the command of her father, King Danaus of Libya

In some accounts, these two sons of Aegyptus could be begotten by either Eurryroe, daughter of the river-god Nilus, or Isaie, daughter of King Agenor of Tyre.

In Greek mythology, Lamprus (Ancient Greek: Λάμπρος, romanized: Lampros, lit. 'shining, distinguished, munificent') was the son of Pandion from Phaistos in Crete and father of Leucippus by Galatea.

In Greek mythology, Leucippus (Ancient Greek: Λεύκιππος, romanized: Leúkippos, lit. 'white horse') was a young man of Phaistos, Crete. Leucippus was born to Lamprus, the son of Pandion, and Galatea, daughter of Eurytius the son of Sparton. He is notable for having undergone a magical gender transformation by the will of the goddess Leto. Due to his transition from female to male, Leucippus can be considered a transgender male figure in Greek mythology.

His story was included in the Metamorphoses by Antoninus Liberalis. It shares several elements with the myth of Iphis, another female Cretan child raised as and transformed into a male from Ovid's poem the Metamorphoses.

In Greek mythology, Callidice (/kəˈlɪdɪsiː/; Ancient Greek: Καλλιδίκη, romanized: Kallidíkē, lit. 'beautiful justice') is a feminine name attributed to several individuals.

• Callidice, an Eleusinian princess as one of the daughters of King Celeus and Metaneira, sister of Cleisidice, Demo and Callithoe.
• Callidice, one of the Danaids. She married (and killed) Pandion, son of Aegyptus
• Callidice, queen of Thesprotia and wife of Odysseus. She and Odysseus had a son Polypoetes. According to the Telegony, Odysseus was sent on another voyage by the gods after killing all of Penelope's suitors. When Callidice died, Odysseus returned home to Ithaca, leaving their son to rule.

In Greek mythology, Plexippus or Plexippos (Ancient Greek: Πλήξιππος means "striking") is a name that refers to:

• Plexippus, a Pleuronian prince as the son of King Thestius of Pleuron and Eurythemis, daughter of Cleoboea. He was the brother of Althaea, Leda, Hypermnestra, Evippus, Eurypylus and Iphiclus. Together with his other brother Toxeus, Plexippus participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. He 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.
• Plexippus, a Thracian prince as son of Phineus and Cleopatra, brother of Pandion. He and his brother were blinded by Phineus at the instigation of their stepmother Idaea.
