Celtus Williams Abiola Dossou-Yovo
In Greek mythology, Celtus (; grc, ΚÎλτος ''Keltos'' ) may refer to three various figures: * Celtus, the eponymous progenitor of the Celts. There are two alternative traditions. One, found in Appian's ''Illyrian Wars'', holds that Celtus was the son of Polyphemos and Galatea and the brother of Illyrius and Galas. The other, found in the ''Erotica Pathemata'' ("Sorrows of Love") by the 1st-century grammarian Parthenius of Nicaea, and also known from the medieval '' Etymologicum Magnum'', has Celtus as the son of Heracles and Celtine. * Celtus, son of Periboea and Meges, a rich man son of Dymas. He was killed by Neoptolemus. * Celtus, one of the Suitors of Penelope who came from Zacynthus along with other 43 wooers.Apollodorus, Epitome 7.29 He, with the other suitors, was slain by Odysseus with the help of Eumaeus, Philoetius, and Telemachus.Apollodorus, Epitome 7.33 Notes References * Apollodorus, ''The Library'' with an English Translation by Sir James ...

Badminton At The 2019 African Games – Women's Singles
Badminton is a racquet sport played using racquets to hit a shuttlecock across a net. Although it may be played with larger teams, the most common forms of the game are "singles" (with one player per side) and "doubles" (with two players per side). Badminton is often played as a casual outdoor activity in a yard or on a beach; formal games are played on a rectangular indoor court. Points are scored by striking the shuttlecock with the racquet and landing it within the opposing side's half of the court. Each side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net. Play ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor or if a fault has been called by the umpire, service judge, or (in their absence) the opposing side. The shuttlecock is a feathered or (in informal matches) plastic projectile which flies differently from the balls used in many other sports. In particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly. Shu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
