Mythology
Autochthoe married Aegeus and had by him several daughters, but no sons.[1] Some traditions held that she was the only spouse of Aegeus, yet in other accounts, Aegeus was said to have married and divorced several times because none of his wives bore him male heirs, which put his kingdom at risk of being usurped.[2] This marriage with Autochthe might have been political as well, since marriage with one of the Perseids would mean alliance between Argos and Athens.
