Eudaimon (son of Aegyptus)
Eudaimon ( ancient Greek Εὐδαίμων Eudaímōn ) is one of the 50 sons of Aigyptus , the twin brother of Danaos , in Greek mythology , 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 Erato - the manuscripts offer erate - killed in the wedding night. The author of the library of Apollodorus , however, lets Erato be married to Bromios .
