From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Diogeneia (/daɪoʊˈdʒiːniə/; Ancient Greek: Διογένεια) may refer to three women in Greek mythology:
- Diogeneia, daughter of the river god Cephissus and the wife of Phrasimus by whom she became the mother of Praxithea, wife of King Erechtheus.[1]
- Diogeneia, an Eleusinian princess as one of the daughters of King Celeus and Metanira.[2]
- Diogeneia, daughter of Phorbas, from Olenus in Achaea, and possibly Hyrmina, thus sister to Augeas,[3] Actor[4] and Tiphys.[5] She was the wife of King Alector of Elis and mother of Amarynceus.[6] Otherwise, the latter was called the son of Onesimachus[7]
