Antianeira of Argos
Appearance
(Redirected from Antianeira (possibly mother of Idmon))
In Greek mythology, Antianeira (Ancient Greek: Ἀντιανείρης 'a match for men') may have been mother of the Argonaut Idmon by the god Apollo.[1] The scholiast on Apollonius Rhodius, however, calls Asteria the mother of Idmon.[2]
