Cephalus
Cephalus (; , Kephalos) is a name, used both for the hero-figure in Greek mythology and carried as a theophoric name by historical persons. The word ''kephalos'' is Greek for "head", perhaps used here because Cephalus was the founding "head" of a great family that includes Odysseus. It could be that Cephalus means the head of the Sun who kills (evaporates) Procris (dew) with his unerring ray or 'javelin'. Cephalus was one of the lovers of the dawn goddess Eos. Sumptuous sacrifices for Cephalus and for Procris are required in the inscribed sacred calendar of Thorikos in southern Attica, dating perhaps to the 430s BCE and published from the stone in 1983.〔G. Daux, in ''L'Antiquité Classique'' 52 pp 150-74 and ''J. Paul Getty Museum'' 12 (1984:145-52); discussed in D. Whitehead, ''The demes of Attica'' (1986:194-99), noted by Fowler 1993.〕 ==Son of Hermes and Herse==
According to pseudo-Apollodorus, ''Bibliotheke''〔''Bibliotheke'', 3.14.3.〕 Cephalus was an Athenian, son of Hermes and Herse.
