Cydon information


In Greek mythology, the name Cydon (Ancient Greek: Κύδων) may refer to:

  • Cydon of Crete, eponym of Cydonia. According to one version, he was a son of Tegeates and possibly, Maera, daughter of the Titan Atlas. He was the brother of Leimon, Schephrus, Gortys and Archedius: the three brothers were said to have migrated to Crete from Arcadia.[1] Alternately, Cydon was a native of Crete, son of Acacallis by Hermes[2] or Apollo.[3] He is probably the same as Cydon, the father of Eulimene.[4]
  • Cydon of Thebes, name shared by three defenders of Thebes in the war of the Seven against Thebes:
    • One of the fifty warriors who laid an ambush against Tydeus and were killed by him.[5]
    • Son of Abas, was killed by Parthenopaeus.[6]
    • Another Theban, killed by Hippomedon.[7]
  • Cydon of Lemnos, half-brother of Hypsipyle. Was slain by Myrmidone the night all Lemnian men were killed by their women.[8]
  • Cydon, an ally of Turnus, lover of Clytius. Clytius fell in the battle against Aeneas.[9]
  • Cydon, one of the horses of Hippodamus.[10]
