Cassus
In Greek mythology, Cassus is one of the 50 sons of Aigyptus , the twin brother of Danaos , and is therefore one of the Aegyptiads .
According to the traditional bad, incomplete list of 47 of 50 Danaidenpaarungen in the Fabulae of Hyginus Mythographus he was by his wife Helicta killed on their wedding night. The name of Cassus is as corrupt as that of his wife. Bernhard Bunte suspected that the Aigyptus son was the Kisseus mentioned in the library of Apollodorus .
