In Greek mythology, Nemea ( /ˈniːmiə/; Ancient Greek: Νεμέα or Νεμέαν means 'wooded district') was the eponymous nymph of Nemea, a district between Cleonae and Phlius in Argolis. [1]
Nemea was one of the naiad daughters of the river-god Asopus [2] and possibly Metope, the river-nymph daughter of the river Ladon. [3] She was the sister of Salamis, [4] Aegina, [5] Corcyra, Thebe, [6] Antiope, [7] Cleone, [8] Harpina, [9] Plataea [10] ( Oeroe [11]), and Tanagra. [12]
In some account, Nemea's parentage is attributed to Zeus and Selene. [13] [14]
