Triopas in the context of "Aeolus (son of Hellen)"

In Greek mythology, Lapithes (/læpiːθs/);(Ancient Greek: Λαπίθης) may refer to the following figures:

• Lapithes, son of Apollo and Stilbe. He and his full brother Centaurus were believed to have given their names to the legendary races of Lapiths and Centaurs respectively. Lapithes settled on the banks of River Peneus and married Orsinome, daughter of Eurynomus, by whom he became the father of Phorbas, Periphas, Triopas (possibly) and Diomede.
• Lapithes, son of Aeolus (son of Hippotes) and father of Lesbus, who married Methymna, daughter of Macareus, and gave his name to the island of Lesbos.

In Greek mythology, Orsinome (Ancient Greek: Ὀρσινόμην) was the daughter of Eurynomus, son of Magnes and Phylodice. She married Lapithes, son of Apollo and Stilbe, by whom she became the mother of Phorbas, Periphas, Triopas (possibly) and Diomede.

Polyxo (/pəˈlɪksoʊ/; Ancient Greek: Πολυξώ Poluxṓ) is the name of several figures in Greek mythology:

• Polyxo, one of the 3,000 Oceanids, water-nymph daughters of the Titans Oceanus and his sister-wife Tethys.
• Polyxo, one of the Hyades.
• Polyxo, a Naiad of the river Nile, presumably one of the daughters of the river-god Nilus. She was one of the wives of King Danaus of Libya and bore him twelve daughters: Autonoe, Theano, Electra, Cleopatra, Eurydice, Glaucippe, Anthelea, Cleodora, Euippe, Erato, Stygne, and Bryce. They married twelve sons of King Aegyptus of Egypt and Caliadne, Polyxo's sister, and murdered them on their wedding night. According to Hippostratus, Danaus had all of his progeny by a single woman, Europe, also daughter of Nilus. In some accounts, he married Melia, daughter of his uncle Agenor, king of Tyre.
• Polyxo, mother of Antiope and possibly Nycteis by Nycteus.
• Polyxo, mother of Actorion. She came to invite Triopas and Erysichthon to her son's wedding, but Erysichthon's mother had to answer that her own son was not coming, as he had been wounded by a boar during hunt. The truth was that Erysichthon was dealing with the insatiable hunger sent upon him by the angry Demeter.
• Polyxo, a Lemnian, nurse of Hypsipyle and a seeress. She advised that the Lemnian women conceive children with the Argonauts, as all the men on the island had previously been killed.
• Polyxo, a native of Argos, who married Tlepolemus. She received Helen after the latter had been driven out of Sparta, but when Helen was bathing, several handmaidens sent by Polyxo, seized her and hanged her from a tree.
• Polyxo, a Maenad in the retinue of Dionysus who attempted to kill Lycurgus of Thrace.
• Polyxo (or Polyzo), a sister of Meleager.

Aloeus (/əˈloʊjuːs/; Ancient Greek: Ἀλωεύς probably derived from ἀλοάω aloaō "to thresh, to tread" as well as "to crush, to smash") can indicate one of the two characters in Greek mythology:

• Aloeus or Haloeus, a Thessalian prince as the son of Poseidon and princess Canace, daughter of King Aeolus and Enarete. He was the brother of Hopleus, Nireus, Epopeus and Triops. His first wife was his niece Iphimedeia, and later Eriboea, daughter of Eurymachus. In some accounts, Aloeus was the father of Salmoneus who founded Elis, the girls Elate and Platanus, the twin giants, Otus and Ephialtes, collectively known as the Aloadae and lastly, the maiden Pancratis. These giants made war on the gods and captured the god Ares in a bag. Aloeus's wife Eriboea reported this to the gods, for which Aloeus had her flayed alive. In Virgil's Aeneid, the sons of Aloeus were found in the underworld and there Aeneas sees them being punished by Rhadamanthus. This scene from Virgil was a precursor to Dante's depiction of Hell. Aloeus was credited to have founded the city of Alus in Aetolia.
• Aloeus, son of Helios and possibly Antiope or Perse, who received from his father the sovereignty over the district of Asopia (Sicyon). He was the father of Epopeus, his successor.

In Greek mythology, Sthenelus (/ˈsθɛnələs, ˈstɛn-/; Ancient Greek: Σθένελος Sthénelos, "strong one" or "forcer", derived from sthenos "strength, might, force") was a name attributed to several different individuals:

• Sthenelus, son of Perseus and Andromeda. He was the father of Eurystheus.
• Sthenelus, son of Capaneus and Evadne. He fought with Diomedes in the Iliad.
• Sthenelus, father of Cycnus and King of Liguria.
• Sthenelus or Sthenelās, king of Argos and son of Crotopus, son of Agenor, son of Triopas. He was the father of Gelanor.
• Sthenelus, an Egyptian prince as one of the 50 sons of King Aegyptus. His mother was a Tyria and thus full brother of Clitus and Chrysippus. 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. Clitus 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. He married the Danaid Sthenele, daughter of Danaus and Memphis.
• Sthenelus, son of Actor and a companion of Heracles, whom he accompanied to the land of the Amazons to take Hippolyte's girdle. Ammianus Marcellinus wrote that Sthenelus was killed during the war with the Amazons.
• Sthenelus, son of Androgeos, and grandson of Minos. During Heracles' journey to retrieve the belt of Hippolyte, while at the city of Paros two of his companions are murdered by sons of Minos, enraging the hero. He kills the sons of Minos responsible for the act, and only ceases the destruction when he is offered to take two hostages, with him choosing Sthenelus, along with his brother Alcaeus.

In Greek mythology, Messene (/mɪˈsiːni/; Ancient Greek: Μεσσήνη) was the daughter of Triopas, king of Argos (or, alternately, daughter of Phorbas and sister of Triopas). She was married to Polycaon, son of king Lelex, of Laconia.

In Greek mythology, Hopleus (Ancient Greek: Ὁπλεύς) was the name of the following figures:

• Hopleus, an Arcadian prince as one of the 50 sons of the impious King Lycaon either by the naiad Cyllene, Nonacris or by unknown woman. He and his brothers were the most nefarious and carefree of all people. To test them, Zeus visited them in the form of a peasant. These brothers mixed the entrails of a child into the god's meal, whereupon the enraged Zeus threw the meal over the table. Hopleus was killed, along with his brothers and their father, by a lightning bolt of the god.
• Hopleus, a Thessalian prince as the son of Poseidon and princess Canace, daughter of King Aeolus of Aeolia. He was the brother of Aloeus, Epopeus, Nireus and Triopas.
• Hopleus, one of the Lapiths who fought against the Centaurs.
• Hopleus, a soldier in the army of the Seven against Thebes and a comrade of Tydeus. He was killed by Aepytus.

In Greek mythology, Nireus (Ancient Greek: Νιρεύς, romanized: Nireús) may refer to the following personages:

• Nireus, a Thessalian prince as the son of Poseidon and princess Canace, daughter of King Aeolus of Aeolia. He was the brother of Hopleus, Epopeus, Aloeus and Triops.
• Nireus, king of Syme

In Greek mythology, Hiscilla (Ἴσχυλλα, Ischylla) was a Phthian princess as daughter of King Myrmidon and possibly Peisidice (daughter of Aeolus), thus sister of Antiphus, Actor, Dioplethes, Eupolemeia and probably Erysichthon who was otherwise known as her son by Triopas. By the latter, she also became the mother of Phorbas and Iphimedeia.
