Pelasgus in the context of "Cyllene (mythology)"

In Greek mythology, the name Perimede (/ˌpɛrɪˈmiːdi/; Ancient Greek: Περιμήδη "very cunning" or "cunning all round", derived from peri "round" and medea, "cunning" or "craft') refers to:

• Perimede, a Thessalian princess as the daughter of King Aeolus of Aeolia and Enarete, daughter of Deimachus. She was the sister of Salmoneus, Athamas, Sisyphus, Cretheus, Perieres, Deioneus, Magnes, Calyce, Canace, Alcyone and Pisidice. Perimede was the mother of Hippodamas and Orestes by the river god Achelous. In a rare account, Perimede was called the mother of Pelasgus by Phoroneus.
• Perimede, a Calydonian princess as the daughter of King Oeneus, mother of Astypalaea and Europe by Phoenix (son of Agenor).
• Perimede, other name for Polymede, mother of Jason by Aeson.
• Perimede, daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra better known as Iphigenia.

In Greek mythology, Hippothous (Ancient Greek: Ἱππόθοος, meaning "swift-riding") is the name of seven men:

• Hippothous, an Egyptian prince as one of the sons of King Aegyptus. 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. Hippothous was the son of Aegyptus by an Arabian woman and thus full brother of Istrus, Chalcodon, Agenor, Chaetus, Diocorystes, Alces, Alcmenor, Euchenor and Hippolytus. In some accounts, he could be a son of Aegyptus either by Eurryroe, daughter of the river-god Nilus, or Isaie, daughter of King Agenor of Tyre. Hippothous married the Danaid Gorge, daughter of Danaus either by the hamadryads Atlanteia or Phoebe.
• Hippothous, son of Poseidon and Alope, daughter of Cercyon. He was exposed and suckled by animals, while his mother was executed. After Theseus had killed Cercyon he willingly handed over his kingdom to Hippothous, since both men were the sons of Poseidon. Also known as Hippothoon.
• Hippothous, son of Cercyon. He was one of the hunters of the Calydonian Boar. He later inherited the kingdom of Arcadia when king Agapenor did not return from the Trojan War. His successor was his son, Aepytus.
• Hippothous, son of Neaera, daughter of Autolycus. He was killed by Telephus his kinsman (he was the son of Auge).
• Hippothous, son of Hippocoon. He was killed, along with father and brothers, by Heracles.
• Hippothous, one of the sons of Priam.
• Hippothous, son of Lethus, the son of Teutamides, a descendant of Pelasgus. He led the contingent of the Pelasgians during the Trojan War, along with his brother Pylaeus, and was killed by Ajax during the fight over the body of Patroclus.

There are several figures named Pelagon (Ancient Greek: Πελάγων, -ονος) in Greek mythology.

• Pelagon, king of Phocis and son of Amphidamas. He gave Cadmus the cow that was to guide him to Boeotia.
• Pelagon, also called Pelasgus, son of the river-god Asopus by the naiad Metope, daughter of the river Ladon. He was brother to Ismenus, Corcyra, Salamis, Aegina, Peirene, Cleone, Thebe, Tanagra, Thespia, Asopis, Sinope, Ornea, Chalcis, Harpina and Ismene. His sisters were abducted by various gods as punishment for their father's deed.
• Pelagon, one of the suitors of Hippodamia before Pelops.
• Pelagon, one of the Calydonian hunters.
• Pelagon or Pelegon, who is given in the Iliad as the father of the Paeonian warrior Asteropaeus, son of the river-god Axius and Periboea, the daughter of Acessamenus. Presumably this Pelagon was the eponymous founder of Pelagonia.
• Pelagon, a native of Pylos who fought under Nestor in the Trojan War.
• Pelagon, an "illustrious" companion of the hero Sarpedon during the Trojan War, who removes Tlepolemus' spear from Sarpedon's thigh.

In Greek mythology, Meliboea /ˌmɛlɪˈbiːə/ or Meliboia (Ancient Greek: Μελίβοια) was a name attributed to the following individuals:

• Meliboea, daughter of the Titan Oceanus possibly by his sister-wife Tethys. She was the Oceanid who became the mother of King Lycaon of Arcadia with Pelasgus. She was also loved by the river god Orontes, who stopped his waters out of love for her, flooding the land.
• Meliboea, mother of Alector by Magnes, who named the town of Meliboea in Thessaly after her. The town of Meliboea became a kingdom in eastern Thessalia (north Magnesia). Nowadays, Meliboea (Melivoia) is a municipality of Larissa regional unit. The exact place of ancient Meliboia is not known.
• Meliboea, alias Chloris of Thebes, the only Niobid spared when Artemis and Apollo killed the rest. She was so horrified at the sight of her siblings' deaths that she stayed greenishly pale for the rest of her life, and for that reason she was dubbed Chloris ("the pale one").
• Meliboea, a maiden of Ephesus. She loved a young man named Alexis, but her parents betrothed her to another man, and Alexis had to leave the city. By divine intervention she was carried to the place where Alexis lived. The reunited lovers dedicated two temples to Aphrodite.
• Meliboea, mother of Phellus, according to Hesiod. Both mother and son are otherwise unknown.
• Meliboea is also an alternate name for Periboea or Eriboea, mother of Ajax the Great, who was also said to have been married to Theseus.

In Greek mythology, Ecbasus (Greek: Έκβασος) was the son of Argus, the king and eponym of Argos (and son of Zeus and Niobe). According to the mythographer Apollodorus, his mother was Evadne, the daughter of the river god Strymon, and he was the sibling of Criasus, Epidaurus, and Piras. According to a scholion on Euripides, however, his mother was the Oceanid Peitho.

Ecbasus was the father of Agenor, himself the father of Argus Panoptes (the giant who guarded Io). According to the historian Charax, Ecbasus fathered Arestor, whose son, Pelasgus, settled in the region of Arcadia (which was originally known as Pelasgia).

In Greek mythology, Teutamides (Ancient Greek: Τευταμίδης) or Teutamus (Tεύταμoς) was a king of Larissa, Thessaly. He was the son of Amyntor and a great-grandson of Pelasgus; his own son was Nanas. His other son, Lethus, is known as the father of the Trojan War participants Hippothous and Pylaeus. It was during the funerary games of Teutamides' father that Perseus accidentally killed Acrisius with a discus.

In Greek mythology, Pylaeus (Ancient Greek: Πύλαιος), son of Lethus, son of Teutamides, descendant of Pelasgus. He was one of the allies to King Priam in the Trojan War; he commanded the Pelasgian contingent together with his brother Hippothous. Pylaeus is hardly ever mentioned separately from his brother; they are said to have fallen in battle together by Dictys Cretensis and to have been buried "in a garden" according to the late Latin poet Ausonius.

Strabo, in his comment on the Homeric passage referenced above, mentions that according to a local tradition of Lesbos, Pylaeus also commanded the Lesbian army and had a mountain on the island named Pylaeus after him.

In Greek mythology, the name Thessalus (/ˈθɛsələs/ Ancient Greek: Θεσσαλός, romanized: Thessalós, lit. 'Thessalian man') is attributed to the following individuals, all of whom were considered possible eponyms of Thessaly.

• Thessalus, son of Haemon, son of Chlorus, son of Pelasgus.
• Thessalus, son of Poseidon and one of the reputed father of Minyas, founder of Minyan Orchomenus.
• Thessalus, son of Jason and Medea, the twin of Alcimenes and older brother of Tisandrus. He escaped being murdered by his mother and, after the death of Acastus, became king of Iolcus.
• Thessalus, also called Thettalus, son of Heracles and Chalciope. He was the father of Antiphus, Pheidippus and Nesson. After the Carians settled at Calydna and Nisyros, Thessalus took possession of both islands later.
