Ampyx information


In Greek mythology, Ampyx (Ancient Greek: Ἄμπυξ) or Ampycus (Ἄμπυκος Ampykos means 'woman's diadem, frontlet') was the name of the following figures:

  • Ampyx, also called Ampycus or Ampyce[1] was a Titaresian seer, the son of Elatus[2] or Titairon, eponymous founder of the town of Titaron.[3] He fathered Mopsus with the nymph Chloris (daughter of Orchomenus[4]) or Aregonis.[5] His son Mopsus joined the Argonauts after he was slain.[6]
  • Ampyx, father of the seer Idmon in some texts.[7] Otherwise, Idmon was called the son of Abas or the god Apollo by Antianeira. Not to be confused with the above-mentioned Ampyx who was the father of another seer, Mopsus.
  • Ampyx or Ampycus, an Ethiopian priest of Demeter (Ceres). He appears in Ovid's Metamorphoses[8] and was slain by Phineus during a fight between Phineus and Perseus (see Boast of Cassiopeia), just before Phineus was turned to stone.
  • Ampyx or Amycus, son of Opinion, was one of the Lapiths who fought the centaurs at Pirithous's wedding. Appears in Ovid's Metamorphoses.[9]
  • Ampyx, son of Pelias, descendant of King Amyclas of Laconia. Through his son Areus, Ampyx became the ancestor of Patreus who founded Patrae.[10]
