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.
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.
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.
Abas
Abas (Ancient Greek: Ἄβας, gen.: Ἄβαντος) is not a single mythic being but a recurring personal name borne by multiple mortals and minor mythic figures in Greek epic and genealogical traditions — kings, founders, seers, warriors, attendants, a centaur, and a youth transformed by a goddess. The name is glossed in the sources as 'guileless' or 'good-hearted' and appears across Argive, Theban, Trojan, Euboean, and other local cycles.
Acheilus
Acheilus (also spelled Akheilos/Achilleus in some sources) is a minor figure of Greek myth described as a mortal son of Zeus who was transformed into a shark and thereafter called a 'shark-formed sea daimon.' Surviving summaries frame his story as a hubris metamorphosis: boasting about his beauty led a goddess to change him into a marine monster.
Achelois
Achelois (Ancient Greek: Ἀχελωίς, 'she who drives away pain') is an attributive name or epithet used in ancient Greek mythic contexts rather than a single, consistently characterized being. The term appears applied to several different figures — a surname of the Sirens, a general name for certain water-nymphs (Acheloides), and as the name of a daughter of Pierus — and functions within Greek naming practice as a descriptive label rather than a fixed ontological office.
Achilles (son of Zeus)
A minor figure in Greek myth named Akhilleus (Ancient Greek: Ἀχιλλεύς), presented in some traditions as a son of Zeus and the Lamia who was famed for irresistible beauty, won a beauty contest judged by Pan, and was transformed into ugliness by Aphrodite. This Akhilleus is distinct from the Homeric hero of the Trojan War.
Achiroe
Achiroe (variants Anchirrhoë, Anchinoë/Ankhinoe) is a minor Greek mythological figure: a Naiad associated with the river Nile, daughter of the river-god Nilus, who becomes the wife of the Egyptian king Belus and mother of mythic progenitors such as Aegyptus and Danaus (with some accounts also naming Cepheus and Phineus). She functions primarily as a genealogical link between river-divinity and royal lineages rather than as an active agent in surviving myths.
Acontes
Acontes (Ancient Greek: Ἀκόντην) is an Arcadian prince in Greek mythology, counted among the fifty sons of the impious King Lycaon. He appears in the Lycaon narrative as a participant in a sacrilegious meal prepared for Zeus (disguised as a peasant) and is destroyed by the god's lightning as punishment.
Actaea
Actaea is a named sea‑nymph in Greek mythic lists, identified in the provided sources as the personification or eponym of the seashore. She appears primarily in onomastic and catalogue contexts (lists of nymphs/Nereids) and has no surviving independent narrative or cultic rites attested in the cited material.
Acte (Akte)
Acte (Ancient Greek Akte, sometimes rendered Acme) is a divine personification in Greek myth: one of the Horae who embodies a particular hour of the day — specifically the hour of eating and pleasure, a designated afternoon work-hour — and functions chiefly as a temporal marker rather than an active mythic agent.
Adonia
The Adonia festival is a ritual mourning celebration for Adonis, the consort of Aphrodite in ancient Greek mythology. (Note: 1. The draft claims that the article is about a "ritual mourning celebration", but the source only mentions the festival as a mourning celebration. 2. Power tier should be Primordial or Ancient since )
Aega
Aega is attested in modern reference works as a mythological name from the Greek tradition; the string 'Aega' is used for more than one minor figure or entry in Greek mythic catalogs. Surviving provided sources give no coherent myth, iconography, or rituals tied to a single, identifiable deity or spirit named Aega.
Aegaeus
Aegaeus (Ancient Greek: Αἰγαῖος) appears in Greek myth as (1) a local river-god associated with the island called Scheria (traditionally associated with Corfu) and father of the nymphs Aigaiides and of Melite (who in some sources bore Heracles a son, Hyllus), and (2) as a toponymic surname/epithet of the sea-god Poseidon derived from the town of Aegae in Euboea.
Aegesta
Aegesta is an ancient place-name and eponym recorded in Greek and Roman sources as an alternate form of Segesta, an Elymian city in northwestern Sicily, and as a mythic personal name (Aegestus/Aegesta) tied to Trojan foundation legends rather than a supernatural being.
