Panthios

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Panthios ( ancient Greek Πάνθιος Pánthios ) 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 poorly preserved, incomplete list of 47 of 50 Danaid matings in the fabulae of Hyginus Mythographus , he was killed by his wife Philomela on their wedding night . It is possible that he is identical to the Pandion killed by Kallidike in the Danaid catalog of the library of Apollodorus .
