Philyra (mythology)
Philyra (: (ギリシア語:Φιλύρα), "linden-tree") is the name of three distinct characters in Greek mythology.
== Oceanid ==
Philyra was an Oceanid, a daughter of Oceanus and Tethys, the second oldest Oceanid according to Callimachus.〔Callimachus, Hymn 1 to Zeus 30 ff〕 Chiron was her son by Cronus,〔Tzetzes on Lycophron, 1200〕〔Pliny the Elder, ''Natural History'' 7. 197〕 who chased her and consorted with her in the shape of a stallion, hence the half-human, half-equine shape of their offspring;〔Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'' 2. 1231 ff〕〔Scholia on Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'' 1. 554〕 this was said to have taken place on Mount Pelion.〔Callimachus, Hymn 4 to Delos 104 ff〕 When she gave birth to her son, she was so disgusted by how he looked that she abandoned him at birth, and implored the gods to transform her into anything other than anthrpomorphic as she could not bear the shame of having had such a monstrous child; the gods changed her into a linden tree.〔Hyginus, ''Fabulae'', 138〕〔(Theoi.com: Philyra )〕 Yet in some versions Philyra and Chariclo, the wife of Chiron, nursed the young Achilles;〔Scholia on Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'', 4. 813〕〔Pindar, Pythian Ode 4. 102 ff〕 Chiron's dwelling on Pelion where his disciples were reared was known as "Philyra's cave".〔Pindar, Nemean Ode 3. 43〕〔Nonnus, ''Dionysiaca'', 48. 40〕〔Callimachus, Hymn 4 to Delos, 118〕 Chiron was often referred to by the matronymic Philyrides or the like.〔Pindar, Pythian Ode 3. 1〕〔Hesiod, ''Theogony'', 1002〕〔Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'' 1. 554〕〔''Argonautica Orphica'', 450〕〔Virgil, ''Georgics'' 3. 549〕
Two other sons of Cronos and Philyra may have been Dolops〔Hyginus, ''Fabulae'', Preface〕 and Aphrus, the ancestor and eponym of the Aphroi, i.e. the native Africans.〔Suda s.v. ''Aphroi''〕
