Andreus, in another passage
Pausanias speaks of Andreus (it is, however, uncertain whether he means the same man as the former) as the person who first colonized the island of
Andros.[3] According to
Diodorus Siculus, Andreus was one of the generals of
Rhadamanthys, from whom he received the island afterwards called Andros as a present.[4]Stephanus of Byzantium,[5]Conon[6] and
Ovid[7] call this first colonizer "Andrus" (son of
Anius) and not Andreus.[8]
