< Aegina, daughter of Sicyon >

1 Origin

In 1325 BC, Aegina was born in Sicyon of Argolis.

Aegina's father was the river god Asopus, which flows near Phlius.

2 Family

Aegina married Actor, son of Myrmidon, and had a son, Aeacus.

3 Others

Aegina's son Aeacus' two sons, Peleus and Telamon, appear in the story of the Argonauts.

Also, Talaus, the husband of Lysianassa, daughter of Polybus, son of Chthonophyle, daughter of Sicyon, appears in the story of the Argonauts.

In other words, Chthonophyle, the mother of Polybus, is of the same generation as Aegina.

Therefore, Aegina's father, the river god Asopus, is presumed to be Chthonophyle's father Sicyon.

The Asopus River flows near Sicyon and empties into the sea.
