Astypalaea
In Greek mythology, Astypalaea (pronounced [astiˈpalea]; Ancient Greek: Ἀστυπάλαια) was the daughter of Phoenix (son of Agenor) and Perimede, daughter of Oeneus; thus she was the sister of Europa. She was a lover of Poseidon who seduced her, and had two sons by him: Ancaeus, King of Samos, and Eurypylos, King of Kos.[1][2]
The island of Astypalaia was believed to have been named after her.[3]

gollark: We're pretty general intelligences, but there are some things we can't really do or are extremely bad at.
gollark: Would you accept something as "truly thinking" if it appeared entirely identical to a human over a text chat?
gollark: That seems somewhat silly. It takes humans a lot of training to control complex real-world machinery, and that's with lots of intuition about the physical world in general already extant.
gollark: Interesting.
gollark: I know roughly how the training process works. I just dispute that it can't lead to "intelligence" of some kind.
