Unsolved:Elatus

From HandWiki

There were several figures named Elatus /ˈɛlətəs/ or Élatos (Ancient Greek: Ἔλατος means "ductile") in Greek mythology.

  • Elatus, a son of Arcas by either Leaneira[1] (or Laodameia), Meganeira, Chrysopeleia[2] or Erato[3] and the brother of Apheidas and Azan. He was allotted by Arcas the region of then-nameless Mount Cyllene as his domain, but afterwards migrated to the region which later became known as Phocis, and assisted the local inhabitants in the war against the Phlegyans; he was renowned as founder and eponym of the city Elatea.[4] An image of him was carved on a stele in the marketplace of Elatea.[5] He married Laodice (daughter of Cinyras) and became by her, the father of Stymphalus, Pereus, Aepytus, Ischys, and Cyllen.[6]
  • Elatus, a Lapith chieftain of Larissa, Thessaly. He was the father, by Hippeia, of Caeneus,[7] Polyphemus,[8] the seer Ampycus,[9] Ischys who was beloved by Coronis,[10] and a daughter Dotia, possibly the eponym of Dotion (Dotium) in Thessaly[11] (see also Dotis).
  • Elatus, a centaur, killed during a battle with Heracles by a poisoned arrow that passed through his arm and continued to wound Chiron in the knee.[12]
  • Elatus or Elaton, a charioteer of Amphiaraus,[13] otherwise known as Baton.
  • Elatus, father of Euanippe, who was the mother of Polydorus by Hippomedon.[14]
  • Elatus, a son of Icarius and father of Taenarus by Erymede.[15]
  • Elatus, an ally of the Trojans from Pedasus, killed by Agamemnon.[16]
  • Elatus, one of the suitors of Penelope from Same along with other 22 wooers.[17] He was slain by Emaeus during the assault of Odysseus.[18]
