In Greek mythology, the name Cydon (Κύδων) may refer to: *Cydon of Crete, eponym of Cydonia. According to one version, he was a son of Tegeates and brother of Gortys and Archedius: the three brothers were said to have migrated to Crete from Arcadia.〔Pausanias, ''Description of Greece'', 8. 53. 4〕 Alternately, Cydon was a native of Crete, son of Acacallis by Hermes〔〔Scholia on Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'', 4. 1492〕 or Apollo.〔Stephanus of Byzantium s. v. ''Kydonia''〕 He is probably the same as Cydon, the father of Eulimene.〔Parthenius, ''Love Romances'', 35〕 *Cydon of Thebes, name shared by three defenders of Thebes against the Seven: * *One of the fifty warriors who laid an ambush against Tydeus and were killed by him.〔Statius, ''Thebaid'', 2. 623〕 * *Son of Abas, was killed by Parthenopaeus.〔Statius, ''Thebaid'', 9. 759〕 * *Another Theban, killed by Hippomedon.〔Statius, ''Thebaid'', 9. 127〕 *Cydon of Lemnos, half-brother of Hypsipyle. Was slain by Myrmidone the night all Lemnian men were killed by their women.〔Statius, ''Thebaid'', 5. 220〕 *Cydon, an ally of Turnus, lover of Clytius.
