Chloris of Pylos

Chloris appears in classical genealogical listings as a Minyan princess. The supplied sources identify her as a daughter of Amphion (Wikipedia and Wikidata) and, in the Hyginus passage cited, explicitly as “daughter of Amphion and Niobe.” She is named as the wife of Neleus and as mother of Periclymenus (Hyginus), situating her within the family networks that anchor heroes to places such as Pylos in Greek mythic geography. The provided materials present her role primarily as a dynastic connector within these genealogical traditions rather than as the subject of standalone narratives.

The supplied sources do not contain any physical description, iconography, or artistic representation of Chloris. No contemporaneous or cited later depiction is provided in the excerpts; the record is silent on clothing, attributes, or distinguishing marks. The absence of descriptive detail in the sources means there is no attested visual profile for Chloris within the provided material.

No supernatural powers, magical abilities, or distinctive behaviors are attributed to Chloris in the supplied texts. Her function in the extant passages is genealogical: she is recorded as daughter, wife, and mother, used to establish lineage and localize heroic figures (for example, linking Periclymenus to Pylos). The sources treat her as a mortal figure whose importance derives from familial and dynastic connections rather than from agency or extraordinary faculties.
