Canes (mythology)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Greek mythology, Canes (Ancient Greek: Κάνῃ means 'basket of reed') was a king of Phocis during the voyage of the Argonauts. His father was Cephalus, son of King Deion and Diomede.[1] Canes married Evadne, daughter of King Pelias of Iolcus. Their marriage was arranged by the hero Jason in compensation for the death of the bride's father.[2]
