Eleusis (mythology) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eleusis (mythology) In Greek mythology, Eleusis was the eponymous hero of the town of Eleusis. He was a son of Hermes and the Oceanid Daeira, or of Ogygus.〔Pausanias, ''Description of Greece'', 1. 38. 7〕 Panyassis wrote of him as father of Triptolemus, adding that "Demeter came to him";〔Cited in Pseudo-Apollodorus, ''Bibliotheca'' 1. 5. 2〕 this version of the myth is found in the works of Hyginus and Servius. According to it, King Eleusis and Cothonea (Cyntinia), parents of Triptolemus, are visited by Demeter, who rears their son, feeding him divine milk by day and placing him into the fire at night, which makes Triptolemus grow faster than mortal children normally do. She eventually kills Eleusis for intervening when the fire ritual is performed.〔Hyginus, ''Fabulae'', 147〕〔Servius on Virgil's ''Georgics'', 1. 19〕 The myth is closely parallel with the one that deals with Demeter visiting Celeus and Metaneira (also possible parents of Triptolemus) and nursing their son Demophon.〔Homeric Hymn 5 to Demeter〕 ==See also==
