Dodone (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Dodone (Ancient Greek: Δωδώνης) was said to be one of the Oceanid nymphs[1] (the 3,000 daughters of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys), after whom the ancient city of Dodona was named.The 6th century AD grammarian Stephanus of Byzantium (s.v.Δωδὠνη),[2] writes that according to Thrasyboulos (FHG II 464, a), as reported by Epaphroditus (fr.Stephanus further notes that, according to Akestodorus, the city was instead named after Dodon, a son of Zeus and Europa, but concludes that it is more likely that the city was named after the river Dodon, as Herodian says.This article relating to a Greek deity is a stub.
