Argalus
View on Wikipediafrom Wikipedia
In Greek mythology, King Argalus (Ancient Greek: Ἄργαλος) was a leader of the Lacedaemonid Greeks from the age of legend, now treated as being the Bronze Age in Greece.
Mythology
[edit]Argalus was the eldest son and heir of King Amyklas of Sparta,[1] possibly by his wife, Diomede, daughter of Lapithes.[2] Through this parentage, he was considered to be the brother of King Cynortes (his successor),[3] Hyacinthus,[4] Polyboea,[5] Laodamia[6] (or Leanira[7]), Harpalus,[8] Hegesandre,[9] and in other versions, of Daphne.[10] Argalus was also said to be the father of King Oebalus.[11]
