Eurythemis
In Greek mythology, the name Eurythemis[pronunciation?] (Ancient Greek: Εὐρυθέμιδος) may refer to the following women:
- Eurythemis, daughter of Cleoboea. She was the wife of King Thestius of Pleuron and mother of Althaea, Leda (possibly), Hypermnestra, Iphiclus (possibly), Evippus, Plexippus and Eurypylus.[1]
- Eurythemis, daughter of Acastus, consort of Actor and mother of Ancaeus (who other sources call the son of Lycurgus).[2]
- Eurythemis, daughter of Timandreus and sister of Cotto. The two sisters were honored by the Heracleidae for having supported them in their struggle for returning to Peloponnesos.[3]
