The supplied sources do not record a mythological origin story for Cleone. Attestations in the material present Cleone as a personal name used in literature (the title/character of Robert Dodsley's 1758 tragedy, performed at Covent Garden) and as a toponym (Cleone, California). A Wikipedia disambiguation entry briefly lists a Cleone identified as a Naiad in Greek mythology, but no primary mythological texts, descriptive accounts, or narrative origins for a mythic Cleone are included in the provided sources, so no origin narrative can be documented here.
No ethnographic or folkloric description of a supernatural appearance is present in the provided material. Descriptions that do exist concern human portrayals (for example, casting of the role Cleone in an 18th‑century stage production) and poetic imagery in Henry Kendall's poem, but the sources do not describe a consistent physical form or supernatural embodiment for a being named Cleone.
The provided sources do not attribute supernatural abilities, behaviors, or powers to Cleone. References treat Cleone as a personal or place name in literary, poetic, and geographic contexts; beyond a terse disambiguation mention suggesting a mythological Naiad, there are no documents in the supplied set that describe activities, interactions with humans, or otherworldly agency.
Cleite (Clite / Κλείτη)
Cleite (Ancient Greek: Κλείτη) is a personal name borne by several mortal women in Greek myth rather than a single supernatural class. Figures called Cleite appear in different epic cycles—Argonautica, the Danaid traditions, the Trojan cycle, and Nonnus' Dionysiaca—typically as wives, mourners, maenads, or mothers whose narrative fates include grief, filial ties, and in one tradition metamorphosis into a spring.
Cleoboea
Cleoboea (Greek Κλεόβοια) is a personal name borne by several mortal women in Greek mythic tradition. Attestations include a figure credited with bringing the orgies (mysteries) of Demeter from Paros to Thasos and a queen of Miletus (also called Philaechme in some accounts) who murdered the rejected youth Antheus.
Cleobule
Cleobule (Ancient Greek: Κλεοβούλη, Kleoboúlē) is a conventional female personal name in ancient Greek mythic genealogies borne by several distinct women. The name appears in multiple, sometimes conflicting traditions as mothers or wives who establish lineage for various heroes and figures in the Homeric/Trojan War cycle and regional myths.
Cleocharia
Cleocharia (Ancient Greek: Κλεοχαρεία, Kleokhareia) is a naiad of Laconia in Greek myth who becomes queen-consort to the legendary king Lelex and is cited as an ancestress of the Spartan royal line, frequently named mother (or ancestor) of Eurotas. She functions primarily within genealogical traditions that link local freshwater divinities to dynastic origins in the region of Sparta/Lacedaemon.
Cleodora (Nymph)
Greek nymph associated with prophecy and the Oracle of Delphi. (Note: 1. Power tier: Primordial (not Ancient), as she is a prophetic nymph associated with a powerful deity-level oracle, implying a more fundamental or cosmic connection. 2. Appearance: Add a description b)
Cleolla
Cleolla (Κλεόλλα, also spelled Cleola) is a mortal figure in Greek mythic genealogies, presented as a member of the house of Pelops and variously placed as wife, mother, or grandmother in competing accounts of the ancestry of Agamemnon, Menelaus, and Anaxibia.
Cleonymus
Cleonymus (Kleonymos) is attested in the provided sources only as a Greek personal name borne by several historical figures (Athenian general; a Spartan youth; a Spartan Agiad general; a tyrant of Phlius) and as a modern taxonomic genus name for a group of wasps. The supplied materials contain no evidence that Cleonymus is a supernatural or mythological entity.
Cleopatra (Danaid)
One of the fifty daughters of King Danaus in Greek myth. The name Cleopatra here identifies at least two distinct mortal women within the Danaid genealogical tradition who married sons of Aegyptus and—like most Danaids—are recorded as having slain their husbands on their wedding night.
Cleophyle
Cleophyle (Ancient Greek: Kleophule) is an Arcadian mortal woman attested in Greek genealogical traditions as the wife of King Lycurgus of Arcadia and mother—variously named—of sons including Ancaeus, Epochus, Amphidamas, and Iasius. She functions in the sources primarily as a dynastic matron used to establish lineage rather than as an independently attested mythic actor or cult figure.
Clio
Clio is one of the nine Muses of ancient Greek myth, traditionally associated with history, the proclamation and celebration of great deeds, and sometimes with certain musical functions. Daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, she is portrayed in classical iconography with attributes of record‑keeping and proclamation.
Clitonymus
Clitonymus (also spelled Kleitonumos, Clysonymus, Clisonymus) is a mortal youth in Greek mythic tradition attested as the man killed by Patroclus in a quarrel — commonly given as over a game of dice — an episode that precipitates flight and refuge with Peleus. Variant and fragmentary accounts present divergent circumstances for his death.
Cloacina
Cloacina is a minor Roman divinity associated with the Cloaca Maxima (and the original Velabrum/Spinon stream), worshipped at a small public sacellum in the Roman Forum. She is linked to purification by moving water, civic sanitation, and rites of reconciliation, and is sometimes syncretized with Venus under the epithet Venus Cloacina.
