In Greek mythology, Proioxis[pronunciation?] (Ancient Greek: Προΐωξις) was the personification of onrush or pursuit in battle (as opposed to Palioxis).[1] She and her sister Palioxis (Backrush) presided over the surge of battle. They were probably numbered amongst the Makhai, daimones of the battlefield. Proioxis was probably the same as Ioke.
