Sicyon (mythology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Greek mythology, Sicyon (/ˈsɪkiːoʊn/; Ancient Greek: Σικυών) is the eponym of the polis of the same name, which was said to have previously been known as Aegiale[1] and, earlier, Mecone.[2]
Sicyon's father is named variously as Marathon,[3] Metion, Erechtheus or Pelops.[4] He married Zeuxippe, the daughter of Lamedon, the previous king of the polis and region that would come to be named after him.[5] They had a daughter Chthonophyle, who bore two sons: Polybus to Hermes and, later, Androdamas to Phlius, the son of Dionysus.[6] However, in some accounts, Chthnophyle bore Phlius to Dionysus instead.[7][8]
