ΠΕΡΡΑΙΒΙΑ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΘΕΣΣΑΛΙΑ
Hypseus (Hupseus), a son of Peneius, and the Naiad Creusa, or Phillyra, the daughter of Asopus, was king of the Lapithae, and married to Chlidanope, by whom he became the father of Cyrene, Alcaea, Themisto, and Astyageia (Pind. Pyth. ix. 13, &c.; Apollod. i. 9,2; Diod. iv. 69; Paus. ix. 34.5). Another personage of this name occurs in Ovid (Met. v. 99).
Γιος του Μυρμιδόνα, πατέρας του Ευρυτίωνα
Son of Actor, hunts the Calydonian boar, king of Phthia, receives Peleus, purifies him, and gives him his daughter, accidentally killed by Peleus.
Eurytion, (Eurution). A son of Irus and Demonassa, and a grandson of Actor, is mentioned among the Argonauts. (Hygin. Fab. 14; Apollon. Rhod. i. 71.) According to others he was a son of Actor, and he is also called Eurytus. (Apollod. i. 8.2; Tzetz. ad Lycoph. 175.) When Peleus was expelled from his dominions, he fled to Eurytion and married his daughter Antigone; but in shooting at the Calydonian boar, Peleus inadvertently killed his father-in-law. (Apollod. iii. 13. 1. &c.)
ΛΑΡΙΣΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΘΕΣΣΑΛΙΑ
Aleuas and Aleuadae (Aleuadai). Aleuas is the ancestorial hero of the Thessalian,
or, more particularly, of the Larissaean family of the Aleuadae (Pind. Pyth. x.
8). The Aleuadae were the noblest and most powerful among all the families of
Thessaly, whence Herodotus (vii. 6) calls its members Basileis. The first Aleuas,
who bore the surname of Purros, that is, the red-haired, is called king (here
synonymous with Tagus)
of Thessaly, and a descendant of Heracles through Thessalus, one of the many sons
of Heracles. (Suidas, s. v. Aleuadai; Ulpian, ad Dem. Olynth. i.; Schol. (ad Apollon.
Rhod. iii. 1090; Vellei. i. 3.) Plutarch (de Am. Frat. in, fin.) states, that
he was hated by his father on account of his haughty and savage character; but
his uncle nevertheless contrived to get him elected king and sanctioned by the
god of Delphi. His reign was more glorious than that of any of his ancestors,
and the nation rose in power and importance. This Aleuas, who belongs to the mythical
period of Greek history, is in all probability the same as the one who, according
to Hegemon (ap. Ael. Anim. viii. 11), was beloved by a dragon. According to Aristotle
(ap. Harpocrat. s.v. Tetrarchia) the division of Thessaly into four parts, of
which traces remained down to the latest times, took place in the reign of the
first Aleuas. Buttmann places this hero in the period between the so-called return
of the Heraclids and the age of Peisistratus. But even earlier than the time of
Peisistratus the family of the Aleuadac appears to have become divided into two
branches, the Aleuadae and the Scopadae, called after Scopas, probably a son of
Aleuas. (Ov. Ibis, 512.) The Scopadae inhabited Crannon and perhaps Pharsalus
also, while the main branch, the Aleuadae, remained at Larissa. The influence
of the families, however, was not confined to these towns, but extended more or
less over the greater part of Thessaly. They formed in reality a powerful aristocratic
party (Basileis) in opposition to the great body of the Thessalians. (Herod. vii.
172)

ΠΕΡΡΑΙΒΙΑ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΘΕΣΣΑΛΙΑ
One of the Lapithae, and father of Polyphemus and of Caeneus, who is hence called Elateius.
Elatus. a prince of the Lapithae at Laiisa in Thessaly, was married to Hippeia, by whom he became the father of Cacneus and Polyphemus, both of whom took part in the expedition of the Argonauts (Hygin. Fab. 11; Ov. Met. xii. 497). He is sometimes confounded with the Arcadian Elatus. There are four more mythical personages of this name. (Hom. Il. vi. 33, Od. xxii. 268; Apollod. ii. 5.4; Apollon. Rhod. i. 101.)
ΜΕΛΙΒΟΙΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΘΕΣΣΑΛΙΑ

Poeas, (Poias). King of the Malians at the foot of Mount Oeta.
He set fire to the pyre of Heracles, in return for which the hero gave him his
bow and his poisoned arrows. His son was Philoctetes, who is hence called Poeantius
heros.
ΦΘΙΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΛΑΡΙΣΑ
Irus (Iros). A son of Actor, and father of Eurydamas and Eurytion. He propitiated Peleus for the murder of his brother; but during the chase of the Calydonian boar, Peleus unintentionally killed Eurytion, the son of Irus. Peleus endeavoured to soothe him by offering him his flocks ; but Irus would not accept them, and at the command of an oracle, Peleus allowed them to run wherever they pleased. A wolf devoured the sheep, but was thereupon changed into a stone, which was shown in later times on the frontier between Locris and Phocis. (Anton. Lib. 38; Tzetz. ad Lycoph. 175; Schol. ad Apollon. Rhod. i. 71.)

Amphictyon (Amphiktuon), a son of Deucalion and Pyrrha (Apollod. i. 7.2), or according to others an autochthon, who after having married Cranae, the daughter of Cranaus, king of Attica, expelled his father-in-law from his kingdom and usurped his throne. He ruled for twelve years, and was then in turn expelled by Erichthonius (Apollod. iii. 14.5, &c.; Paus. i. 2.5). According to Eustathius (ad Hom.), he was married to Chthonopatra, by whom he had a son, Physcus, the father of Locrus. According to Stephanus Byzantius (s. v. Phuskos), however, Aetolus was a son and Physcus a grandson of Amphictyon. He was believed to have been the first who introduced the custom of mixing wine with water, and to have dedicated two altars to Dionysus Orthos and the nymphs. Dionysius of Halicarnassus (iv. 25), who calls him a son of Hellen, Pausanias (x. 8.1), and others, regard Amphictyon as the founder of the amphictyony of Thermopylae, and in consequence of this belief a sanctuary of Amphictyon was built in the village of Anthela on the Asopus, which was the most ancient place of meeting of this amphictyony (Herod. vii. 200.) But this belief is without any foundation, and arose from the ancients assigning the establishment of their institutions to some mythical hero.

Eurydamas, (Eurudamas). A son of Irus and Demonassa, was one of the Argonauts. (Hygin. Fab. 14.) Apollonius Rhodius (i. 67; comp. Orph. Arg. 164) calls him a son of Ctimenus.

Arce (Arke), a daughter of Thaumas and sister of Iris, who in the contest of the gods with the Titans sided with the latter. Zeus afterwards punished her for this by throwing her into Tartarus and depriving her of her wings, which were given to Thetis at her marriage with Peleus. Thetis afterwards fixed these wings to the feet of her son Achilles, who was therefore called podarkes. (Ptolem. Hephaest. 6.)
ΓΥΡΤΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΛΑΡΙΣΑ
Phalereus. A son of Alcon, and grandson of Erechtheus or Eurysthenes, was one of the Argonauts, and the founder of Gyrton. (Orph. Arg. 144.) He is said to have emigrated with his daughter Chalciope or Chalcippe to Chalcis in Euboea, and when his father demanded that he should be sent back, the Chalcidians refused to deliver him up. (Schol. ad Apollon. Riod. i. 97.) In the port of Phalerum near Athens, which was believed to have derived its name front him, an altar was dedicated to him. (Paus. i. l.4.)
