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, 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.

Briseis (/braɪˈsiːɪs/; Ancient Greek: Βρισηίς, romanized: Brīsēís, lit. 'daughter of Briseus', pronounced [briːsɛːís]), also known as Hippodameia (Ἱπποδάμεια, [hippodámeːa]), is a significant character in the Iliad. Her role as a status symbol is at the heart of the dispute between Achilles and Agamemnon that initiates the plot of Homer's epic. She was married to Mynes, a son of the King of Lyrnessus, until the Achaeans sacked her city and she was given to Achilles shortly before the events of the poem. Being forced to give Briseis to Agamemnon, Achilles refused to reenter the battle.

In Greek mythology, the name Cleobule, Cleoboule, Kleobule or Kleoboule (Ancient Greek: Κλεοβούλη, Kleoboúlē) or Cleobula refers to:

• Cleobule, daughter of Aeolus or Aeopolus, one of the possible mothers of Myrtilus by Hermes.
• Cleobule, wife of Aleus of Tegea, mother of Cepheus and Amphidamas.
• Cleobula, mother by Ares of Cycnus who was killed by Heracles.
• Cleobule, mother of Amphimachus by Cteatus instead of Theronice.
• Cleobule, mother of Leonteus by Coronus.
• Cleobule, daughter of Eurytus and by Tenthredon, possibly the mother of Prothous, leader of the Magnesians during the Trojan War. Otherwise, Eurymache was called the mother of the Prothous.
• Cleobule, mother of Phoenix by Amyntor. Otherwise, Hippodameia or Alcimede was called the mother). Cleobule had two other possible children by Amyntor, Asydameia and Crantor. Cleobule was jealous of Amyntor's love for his concubine, Clytie or Phthia, so she convinced her son Phoenix to sleep with her, but when Amyntor found out, he cursed Phoenix with sterility.
• Cleobule, the Boeotian mother of Leitus by Lacritus; alternately, mother of Arcesilaus by Alector (Alectryon). Otherwise, Leitus' mother was Polybule by Alector or he was an earth-born, thus a son of Gaea. Meanwhile, Arcesilaus' parents were Areilycus and Theobule.
• Cleobule, mother of the tragedian Euripides by Apollo, as stated by Hyginus. Whether this is an otherwise unknown legend or simply the result of corruption of the text is uncertain.

In Greek mythology, the name Clytie (Ancient Greek: Κλυτίη, Ionic) or Clytia (Κλυτία, Attic and other dialects) may refer to:

• Clytie (Oceanid), known for her unrequited love for Helios. Out of jealousy, Clytie arranged the death of Leucothoe, Helios' lover.
• Clytie, daughter of Pandareus and sister of Cameiro. Cameiro and Clytie (in other versions known as Cleothera and Merope) lost their parents to the wrath of gods and were reared by Aphrodite. They received gifts from other Olympic goddesses as well: wisdom and beauty from Hera, high stature from Artemis, skill in handiwork from Athena. When Aphrodite left for Olympus to arrange for the sisters to get happily married in the future, the girls, left without supervision, were abducted by the Harpies and given by them to the Erinyes.
• Clytie, daughter of Merops, wife of Eurypylus of Cos, mother of Chalcon and Antagoras. She received Demeter as guest.
• Clytie, daughter of Amphidamas and possible mother of Pelops by Tantalus.
• Clytie, possible mother of Myrtilus by Hermes.
• Clytie, one of the Niobids.
• Clytie, in one source called mother of Thalpius by Eurytus instead of Theraephone.
• Clytie or Phthia, concubine of Amyntor, the cause of a conflict between him and his son Phoenix.
• Clytia, wife of Aeeta (Aeetes) and mother of Medea. Otherwise, the wife of Aeetes was called Ipsia, Idyia, Asterodeia, Hecate, Neaera or Eurylyte.

Ormenium (Ancient Greek: Ὀρμένιον) was a town of ancient Thessaly, mentioned in the Catalogue of Ships in Homer's Iliad, along with Hypereia and Asterium, as belonging to Eurypylus. In Greek mythology, it was said to have been founded by Ormenus, the grandson of Aeolus, and was the birthplace of Phoenix (a grandson of Ormenus). Strabo identifies this town with a place in Magnesia named Orminium, situated at the foot of Mt. Pelion near the Pagasaean Gulf, at the distance of 27 stadia from Demetrias, on the road passing through Iolcus, which was 7 stadia from Demetrias and 20 from Orminium. William Martin Leake, however, observes that the Ormenium of Homer can hardly have been the same as the Orminium of Strabo, since it appears from the situation of Asterium that Eurypylus ruled over the plains of Thessaliotis, which are watered by the Apidanus and Enipeus. The questioning of Strabo's equation of Ormenium with Orminium is still the norm among current scholars; some believing that, instead, Ormenium should be close to Pharsalus, in a Mycenaean site in modern Ktouri. Some archaeologists have related it to the remains found on the Goritsa hill. Others point to a site otherwise called Armenium at Petra. While others leave the site as unlocated.

In Greek mythology, Alcimede (/ælˈsɪmɪdiː/; Ancient Greek: Ἀλκιμέδη means 'mighty cunning') may refer to the following women:

• Alcimede, daughter of Clymene and Phylacus. She was the mother of Jason by Aeson.
• Alcimede, mother of Phoenix by Amyntor, and possibly of Asydameia and Crantor. In some accounts, she was called Cleobule or Hippodameia.

In Greek mythology, Crantor (Ancient Greek: Κράντωρ, -ορος) was a son of Amyntor and possibly Hippodamia or Cleobule. He was probably the brother of Astydameia and Phoenix.
