< Neonus, son of Hellen >

1 Origin

Neonus was born in Phthia, Thessaly, in 1375 BC.

Neonus' father was Hellen, son of Pronous.

 

2 Family

Neonus' wife was probably Eurymedusa, daughter of Cletor, for the following reasons:

Eupolemeia, daughter of Myrmidon, son of Eurymedusa, was born in Phthia.

In other words, Myrmidon lived in Phthia.

Myrmidon is estimated to have been born in 1345 BC.

Therefore, Eurymedusa married Neonus, the ruler of Phthia, and had a son, Myrmidon.

The common ancestor of Neonus and Eurymedusa was Dorus, son of Hellen, and they were the Dorians.
