  1. Periphetes

    Periphetes (; Ancient Greek: Περιφήτης) is the name of several characters from Greek mythology. Periphetes, an Arcadian king as the son of Nyctimus, son of King Lycaon. He was the father of Parthaon, ancestor of Psophis, one of the possible eponyms for the city of Psophis. Periphetes, also known as Corynetes (Κορυνήτης) meaning Club-Bearer from the club (κορύνη) which he carried, was a son of Hephaestus and Anticleia or of Poseidon. Periphetes was lame like his father and used a bronze club as a crutch. He roamed the road from Athens to Troezen where he robbed travelers and killed them with his club. Theseus encountered and killed him near Epidauros (See Plutarch, Life of Theseus, et al.). Periphetes, son of Copreus; he was killed during the Trojan war by Hector. Periphetes, king of Mygdonia.
