Comments[edit]

Something is strange here: Various sites such as

http://messagenet.com/myths/ppt/Nausinoos_1.html

have Nausithous as the daughter of Odysseus with the nymph Calypso.

Reply[edit]

The Nausithous (var. Nausithoös) referenced here is the one from Homer's The Odyssey. Book VII 56-66 give the history of Nausithoös and his sons as related to Odysseus from the goddess Athene. The website above referenced The Theogony, which I believe is by Hesiod. Crinis (talk) 06:12, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
