Шаблон:Other use

In Greek mythology, Erginus Шаблон:IPAc-en (Шаблон:Lang-grc) was an Argonaut who piloted the Argo after the helmsman Tiphys died.[1]

Family

Erginus is said to be the son of Poseidon, and to have resided in the Carian city of Miletus,[2] Yet others suggested he was a son of Periclymenus.[3] Some authors identify him with another Erginus, king of Minyan Orchomenus.[4]

Mythology

During the funeral games which Hypsipyle celebrated at Lemnos in honour of her father Thoas, Erginus also contended for a prize. But he was ridiculed by the Lemnian women because of his grey hair, even though he was still young. However, Erginus defeated Boreads in the foot-race.[5]
