Antianeira
Antianeira was the name of a number of women in Greek mythology:
- Antianeira, mother of the Argonaut Idmon by the god Apollo.[1] The scholiast on Apollonius Rhodius,[2] however, calls Asteria the mother of Idmon.
- Antianeira, a daughter of Menelaus, and mother of the Argonauts Eurytus and Echiones, whom she bore to the god Hermes.[3][4]
- Antianeira, an Amazon who succeeded Penthesilea as Queen of the Amazons.
