Echo and Narcissus for himself, echoing the manner in which Echo did earlier. A while later his body is gone, and in its place is a narcissus flower. The pale flower is still found near river banks so that it can be reflected in the water. Echo and Narcissus Echo and Narcissus is a myth from Ovid's "Metamorphoses", a Latin mythological epic from the Augustan Age. The introduction of the myth of the mountain nymph Echo into the story of Narcissus, the beautiful youth who rejected sexuality and falls in love with his own reflection, appears to have been Ovid's invention.

Sithon (mythology) Sithon (mythology) In Greek mythology, Sithon ( or ; ) was a king of the Odomanti or Hadomanti in Thrace, and presumably the eponym of the peninsula Sithonia and the tribe Sithones. Sithon was the son of either Poseidon and Ossa or of Ares and Anchiroe. He was married to the nymph Mendeis, though Anchiroe is otherwise also given as his wife rather than mother, and had at least two daughters: Rhoeteia, eponym of the promontory of Rhoetium in the Troad, and Pallene. One source gives him as the father of the Thracian princess Phyllis, who loved Demophon of Athens.
