Oceanus is a god in ancient Greek mythology. This is a list of his consorts and daughters, who are known collectively as the ''Oceanids''. According to Hesiod,〔Hesiod; ''(Theogony )'', 364-370〕 the total number of Oceanus' children was 6000, composed of 3000 daughters and 3000 sons (these are called Potamoi), but only a relatively small number of their names is actually attested throughout accounts of Greek mythology. ==List== The following are the daughters of Oceanus and Tethys:〔Hesiod; ''(Theogony )'', 346〕〔Homeric Hymn 2 to Demeter, 415〕〔Pausanias, Guide to Greece, 8.31.4; 8.38.2; 8.47.3〕〔Pseudo-Apollodorus, ''Bibliotheca'' (1.2.2 )〕〔Hyginus; (''Fabulae'' ), Preface: The text is corrupted in places, making the names of some of the daughters illegible.〕 # Acaste # Admete # Aethra # Amaltheia # Amphiro # Amphitrite – usually counted as a Nereid rather than an Oceanid # Anchiroe # Anthracia – one of the nymphs that nursed infant Zeus # Argia # Asia – nymph of the Asian region, sister to Europa # Asterodia〔Scholia on Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'', 3. 242〕 # Asterope – mother by Zeus of Acragas, eponym of several ancient cities known as Acragas, possibly including Acragas, Sicily〔Stephanus of Byzantium, s. v.
