Amphiro.

Amphitrite. Amphitrite is the Queen of the sea. She is married to Poseidon and their children are Triton, Rhode 2 and Benthesicyme.

Rhode 2 is called sometimes daughter of Poseidon & Halia. Halia is sister of the TELCHINE and daughter of Thalatta. Some say that Halia was raped by her six sons, and having cast herself into the sea, was given the name of Leucothea, a sea-deity. But others say that Leucothea is Ino, the daughter of Cadmus & Harmonia 1. In any case Rhode 2 married Helius and gave birth to the HELIADES 2. These, being astrologers, introduced new practices in seamanship and divided the day into hours. The most highly endowed of them was Tenages, who was slain by his brothers because of their envy of him. When their treacherous act became known, all who had taken part in the conspiracy fled and settled in different places.

Benthesicyme married an Ethiopian husband and had two daughters. She also brought up Eumolpus 1. This child was the son of Poseidon & Chione 1, and she, in order not to be detected by her father flung Eumolpus 1 into the sea. But Poseidon picked him up and, having conveyed him to Ethiopia, gave him to Benthesicyme to bring up. Later Eumolpus 1 fought on the side of the Eleusinians in their war against the Athenians and was killed by King Erechtheus of Athens. Chione 1 is the daughter of Boreas 1 [see WINDS] & Orithyia 2, the daughter of Erechtheus, which means that Eumolpus was killed by his grandgrandfather.

Beroe 5. It is after this girl that the city Berytos (Beyrut) in Lebanon was called. Aphrodite came to the Allmother Harmonia 3, who possessed the oracles of Ophion 1, asking whether the gift of Justice would be assigned to the city of her own daughter Beroe 5 (as some say that Beroe 5 is the daughter of Adonis & Aphrodite). Dionysus 2 fell in love with her and Poseidon as well. They had to fight for her and Poseidon won her.

Callirrhoe 1. Mother of Geryon by Chrysaor, and of Cotys 2 and perhaps Atys 3 by Manes.

Geryon had a daughter Erythia 2, who was by Hermes mother of Norax, the man who led the Iberians to Sardinia.

Manes is said to have been the first king of Lydia in Asia Minor. His son Cotys 2 married Halie 2, daughter of Tyllus, and had by her Asies and Atys 3. Atys 3 became King of Lydia after his father (either Manes or Cotys 2 and is said to be a descendant of Heracles 1 & Omphale.

After spending thus one year in sickness he/she is cut off for nine years from the god's councils and feasts and cannot return until the tenth year. Such is the oath of Styx
