Sicyon (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Sicyon (/ˈsɪkiːoʊn/; Ancient Greek: Σικυών) is the eponym of the polis of the same name, which was said to have previously been known as Aegiale[1][2] and, earlier, Mecone.[3] His father is named variously as Marathon, Metion, Erechtheus or Pelops.[4] Sicyon married Zeuxippe, the daughter of Lamedon, the previous king of the polis and region that would come to be named after him.[1] They had a daughter Chthonophyle, who bore two sons: Polybus to Hermes and, later, Androdamas to Phlius, the son of Dionysus.[5] However, in some accounts, Chthnophyle bore Phlius to Dionysus instead.[6][7]
