Glaucus (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Glaucus or Glaukos (/ˈɡlɔːkəs/; Ancient Greek: Γλαῦκος Glaukos "greyish blue" or "bluish green" and "glimmering") was the name of the following figures:
- Glaucus, a sea-god.[1]
- Glaucus (soldier), a mythical Lycian captain in the Trojan War.[2]
- Glaucus (son of Sisyphus), a mythical Corinthian king.[3]
- Glaucus (son of Minos), a mythical prince
- Glaucus, one of the sons of Priam
- Glaucus, a son of Aepytus
