In some account, Metion's father was Eupalamus, son of Erechtheus, instead. He had sons known collectively as the Metionadae which probably include Eupalamus,[8]Sicyon,[9] and
Daedalus[10] (his son by
Iphinoe[11]). These mentioned sons are sometimes credited with other parentages.
Mythology
The Metionids later drove King
Pandion II out of Athens into exile.[12] These usurping sons were in turn overthrown by the sons of Pandion:
Aegeus,
Nisus,
Lycus and
Pallas.[13]
Stephanus of Byzantium, Stephani Byzantii Ethnicorum quae supersunt, edited by August Meineike (1790-1870), published 1849. A few entries from this important ancient handbook of place names have been translated by Brady Kiesling.
