Enipeus

From Free net encyclopedia

In Greek mythology, Enipeus was an Oceanid, son of Oceanus and Tethys.

Enipeus was loved by a mortal woman named Tyro, who was married to a mortal man named Cretheus. She pursued Enipeus, who refused her advances. One day, Poseidon, filled with lust for Tyro, disguised himself as Enipeus and from their union was born Pelias and Neleus, twin boys.

The River Enipeus is located in Thessaly, and was a key factor in the Battle of Pharsalus.bg:Енипей lt:Enipėjas nl:Enipeus
