Rhoeteia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Greek mythology, Rhoeteia (Ancient Greek: Ῥοιτείαa Rhoiteia) was the name which can be attributed to two distinct women who gave their name to the Trojan promontory of Rhoeteium.[1] These two might be related by blood.
- Rhoeteia, a Thracian princess as daughter of the King Sithon and the naiad Achiroe.[2] She was a sister of Pallene.[3]
- Rhoiteia, a daughter of the sea-god Proteus.[4] Her possible mother was princess Torone (Chrysonoe), daughter of King Cleitus of Sithonia and Pallene, the sister of the above Rhoeteia.
