About Celtus
Celtus
In Greek mythology, Celtus (/ˈsɛltəs/; Ancient Greek: Κέλτος Keltos /ˈkɛlˌtɒs/) may refer to three various figures:
- Celtus, the eponymous progenitor of the Celts.[1] There are two alternative traditions. One, found in Appian's Illyrian Wars,[2] holds that Celtus was the son of Polyphemos and Galatea and the brother of Illyrius and Galas.[3] The other, found in the Erotica Pathemata ("Sorrows of Love") by the 1st-century grammarian Parthenius of Nicaea,[4] and also known from the medieval Etymologicum Magnum,[5] has Celtus as the son of Heracles and Celtine.[6]
- Celtus, son of Periboea and Meges, a rich man son of Dymas. He was killed by Neoptolemus.[7]
- Celtus, one of the Suitors of Penelope who came from Zacynthus along with other 43 wooers.[8] He, with the other suitors, was slain by Odysseus with the help of Eumaeus, Philoetius, and Telemachus.[9]
