Origin

Within the genealogical traditions of the Atreid/Argive myth cycle, Cydragora appears as an alternate name for an Anaxibia who is counted among the daughters of Atreus. In these traditions she is married to Strophius, king of Phocis, and is the mother of Pylades. The sources indicate name-variation and overlapping identity claims common in Greek local and literary traditions: single personal names are applied to different women in different locales and single characters may bear multiple names in competing accounts.
