In Greek mythology, Danaus (/ˈdæneɪ.əs/,[1]/ˈdæni.əs/;[2] Ancient Greek: ΔαναόςDanaós) was the king of Libya. His myth is a foundation legend of Argos, one of the foremost Mycenaean cities of the Peloponnesus. In Homer's Iliad, "Danaans" ("tribe of Danaus") and "Argives" commonly designate the Greek forces opposed to the Trojans.
