In Greek mythology, Niobe ( /ˈn.ə.b/; Greek: Νιόβη [ni.óbɛː]: Nióbē) was a daughter of Phoroneus and Teledice and the mother by Zeus of Argus, who was the eponym of Argos [1] and sometimes, Pelasgus. [2] She is not to be confused with the more famous Niobe, who was punished for boasting that she had more children than Leto. [3]
