Minyas (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Minyas (; Ancient Greek: Μινύας) was the founder of Orchomenus, Boeotia.Apollonius Rhodius, ''Argonautica'' 3.1093 ff. Family As the ancestor of the Minyans, a number of Boeotian genealogies lead back to him, according to the classicist H.J. Rose. Accounts vary as to his own parentage: one source stated that he was thought to be the son of Orchomenus and Hermippe, his real father being Poseidon; in another account he was called the son of the latter and Callirhoe or Tritogeneia, daughter of Aeolus or Euryanassa, daughter of Hyperphas or lastly, Chrysogone, daughter of Almus. Yet others variously gave Minyas' father as Chryses (son of Poseidon and Chrysogeneia), Thessalus (son of Poseidon), Eteocles, Sisyphus, Aeolus, Ares, Aleus and Halmus (Almus). Minyas was married to Euryale, Clytodora, or Phanosyra (daughter of Paeon). Of them, Clytodora bore him a daughter Clymene (also called Periclymene, mother of Iphiclus and Alcimede by Phylacus or Ce ...

Richard Dell
Richard Kenneth Dell (11 July 1920 – 6 March 2002) was a New Zealand malacologist. Biography Dell was born in Auckland in 1920. As a young boy, he took an interest in shells, collecting them from the shores of Waitematā Harbour. He even managed to start a "museum" in his backyard. He also helped curate the Auckland War Memorial Museum shell collection. Dell studied at Mount Albert Grammar School and later at the Auckland University College. He took a teacher’s course at Auckland Teachers' College, but World War II delayed his plans to become a teacher. He joined the New Zealand Artillery, serving on Nissan Island, the Solomon Islands, Southwest Asia, Egypt, and Italy. He later published several papers on the land snails he had collected in the Solomon Islands. In 1946, he married botanist and schoolteacher Miriam Matthews, and they had four daughters together. His wife continued working after their marriage and became a well-known women's advocate. After the war, D ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
