Cephissus (mythology)


Cephissus (Greek: Κηφισός, kephisos) is a river god of ancient Greece, associated with the river Cephissus in Attica, Greece. He was a son of Pontus and Thalassa.

The same author names as daughters of this Cephissus:

A mortal son of Cephissus was Eteocles by Euippe daughter of Leucon son of Athamas. This Euippe was wife of King Andreus of Orchomenus and Eteocles inherited Andreus' throne (9.34.9). Eteocles or Eteoclus son of Cephissus is confirmed from Hesiod's Catalogue (Fr. 70) and Pindar (Ol. 14). He first made offering to the Charites by the side of the river Cephissus.

Cephissus was also father of Narcissus according to Ovid's Metamorphoses (3.342), Hyginus (271), and Statius' Thebaid (7.340), Narcissus' mother being an otherwise unknown naiad named Liriope according to Ovid.
