Talaus
In Greek mythology, Talaus (/ˈtæliəs/; Ancient Greek: Ταλαός, romanized: Talaos or Talaós, lit. 'enduring', 'suffering' or 'patiently bearing'[1]) was the king of Argos and one of the Argonauts.[2] He was the son of Bias (or Perialces) and Pero, and brother of Arëius and Leodocus.[2][3] His wife was Lysimache, daughter of Abas (also known as Eurynome, Lysippe[4] or Lysianassa, daughter of Polybus[5]). He was the father of Adrastus, Aristomachus, Astynome, Eriphyle, Mecisteus, Metidice, and Pronax.[6][7][8]
Notes
