In Greek mythology, Dexithea ( Ancient Greek: Δεξιθέας or Δεξιθέης) or Dexione was one of the Rhodian Telchines. She was the daughter of Damon (Demonax), chiefest of the Telchines, by Macelo. [1] Together with King Minos of Crete, Dexithea became the mother of Euxantius. [2] [3]
Zeus struck down all of the Telchines with lightning or Poseidon with his trident because of their insolence to the gods. [2] They only spared Dexithea or with her mother or sister Macelo, because of their kindness. [1] [3]
