Parthenos (mythology)

In Greek mythology, the name Parthenos (Παρθένος) means "virgin".

Parthenos was daughter of Staphylus and Chrysothemis, sister of Rhoeo and Molpadia (Hemithea). After a suicide attempt she and Hemithea were carried by Apollo to Chersonesus, whereupon Parthenos became a local goddess in Bubastus. An obscure goddess known as Parthenos was actually worshipped throughout Chersonesus in historical times. Others called Parthenos the daughter of Apollo and Chrysothemis, who died a maiden and was placed among the stars as the constellation Virgo. Her story might be a variant for that of the precedent.

Parthenos was also an epithet of the virgin goddesses Athena and Artemis, also of Hera. In poetical texts, it occurs as an occasional epithet of other female divinities, such as Adrasteia, Dike, Hebe, Hecate, Persephone, Nemesis, Iris.
