Dodone

In the genealogical traditions preserved in Greek mythographic and reference sources, Dodone is counted among the many Oceanid daughters of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys and is named as the eponymic ancestor after whom the city and oracle of Dodona (also spelled Dodone) in Epirus were said to be called. Her attestation in the surviving material is primarily onomastic: she functions as a founding/name‑giving figure that links a local sacred landscape (the Dodona oracle) to the divine genealogy of the Oceanids. Sources that list Oceanid offspring include her among other named daughters (e.g., Thetis, Metis, Amphitrite), while treatments of the Dodona site emphasize the antiquity and importance of the oracle rather than a biographical narrative about Dodone herself.

The supplied sources provide no physical description, iconography, or independent visual attributes for Dodone. She is identified only by her genealogy (one of the 3,000 Oceanid daughters of Oceanus and Tethys) and by her role as eponym of the site. Thus, extant references record a genealogical and onomastic identity but no documented bodily features, attire, or standard depiction for Dodone in the provided corpus.

The sources do not ascribe distinct powers, actions, or prophetic functions directly to the nymph Dodone. While the oracle at Dodona is repeatedly described in the references as an ancient and important center of divination (notably an oracle of Zeus), the supplied materials do not link those oracular activities specifically to Dodone as an acting prophetic agent. Her role in the surviving material is primarily eponymic and genealogical rather than described as an active performer of miracles or magic.
