Echo (mythology) Echo (mythology) In Greek mythology, Echo (; , "Ēkhō", "echo", from ἦχος ("ēchos"), "sound") was an Oread who resided on Mount Cithaeron. Zeus loved consorting with beautiful nymphs and often visited them on Earth. Eventually, Zeus's wife, Hera, became suspicious, and came from Mt. Olympus in an attempt to catch Zeus with the nymphs. Echo, by trying to protect Zeus (Zeus ordered her to protect him), endured Hera's wrath, and Hera made her only able to speak the last words spoken to her. So when Echo met Narcissus and fell in love with him, she was unable to tell him
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.
