Alcidice (Ancient Greek: Ἀλκιδίκη, Alkidíkē) is presented in the supplied sources as an Arcadian princess in Greek mythic genealogy: daughter of King Aleus, wife of Salmoneus of Elis, and mother of Tyro. She functions as a mortal genealogical connector; the sources treat her as a human noblewoman rather than a divine or supernatural being.

Origin

In the surviving genealogical notices cited in the supplied sources, Alcidice is named as a daughter of King Aleus of Arcadia. She is reported to have married Salmoneus, king of Elis, and to have borne a daughter, Tyro. After Alcidice's death the sources note that Salmoneus later married Sidero. Alcidice's principal role in the record is to anchor Tyro and that line within the noble families of Arcadia and Elis; later important figures (through Tyro's offspring) are thereby connected into the wider heroic genealogies.

Appearance

The supplied sources provide no physical description of Alcidice. She is attested only as a genealogical figure (daughter, wife, mother), and no attributes of age, dress, visage, or other appearance details survive in the cited materials.

Abilities

The sources ascribe no supernatural abilities, powers, or notable deeds to Alcidice. Her recorded actions in the available notices are limited to marriage to Salmoneus and motherhood of Tyro. No exploits, rituals, or character traits beyond these genealogical facts are given in the provided texts.
