Crino

In Greek mythology, the name Crino (/ˈkraɪnoʊ/; Ancient Greek: Κρινώ means "white lily") may refer to:

  • Crino, one of the many consorts of King Danaus of Libya, mother of the Danaïdes Callidice, Oeme, Celaeno and Hyperippe. These daughters wed and slayed their cousin-husbands, sons of King Aegyptus of Egypt and Hephaestine during their wedding night.[1] According to Hippostratus, Danaus had all of his progeny by a single woman, Europe, daughter of the river-god Nilus.[2] In some accounts, he married his cousin Melia, daughter of Agenor, king of Tyre.[3]
  • Crino, daughter of Antenor and Theano, and the sister of Acamas,[4][5] Agenor,[6][7] Antheus,[8] Archelochus,[9][10] Coön,[11] Demoleon,[12] Eurymachus,[13] Glaucus,[14] Helicaon,[15] Iphidamas,[16] Laodamas,[17][18] Laodocus,[19] Medon,[20] Polybus,[6][21] and Thersilochus.[20] Pausanias mentions a painting of her by Polygnotus, where she is portrayed standing next to her father, with a baby in her arms.[22]
