From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Greek mythology, Idmon (Ancient Greek: Ἴδμων means "having knowledge of") was an Argonaut seer.

Allegedly a son of Apollo, he had Abas (or Ampycus) as his mortal father.[1] His mother was Asteria, daughter of Coronus, or Cyrene, or else Antianeira, daughter of Pheres. By Laothoe he had a son Thestor.[2][3]
