Rhexenor
In Greek mythology, Rhexenor (Ancient Greek: Ῥηξήνωρ) may refer to the following figures:[1]
- Rhexenor, the father of Chalciope, who was the second wife of King Aegeus of Athens.[2]
- Rhexenor, the son of Nausithous, and the brother of King Alcinous of the Phaeacians. Alcinous married Rhexenor's daughter Arete. Apollo killed Rhexenor in his hall while he was still a bridegroom and with no son.[3]
