==== Parthenius ==== In a rare variant of the myth according to [[Parthenius of Nicaea|Parthenius]], Inachus sent several men to search and attempt to find her daughter Io who had been captured by brigands (not Zeus this time). One of these was [[Lyrcus]], the son of Phoroneus, who covered a vast deal of land and sea without finding the girl, and finally renounced the toilsome quest. But he was too much afraid of Inachus to return to Argos and went instead to [[Kaunos|Caunus]], where he married Hilebia, daughter of King Aegialus.<ref>[[Parthenius of Nicaea|Parthenius]], [http://topostext.org/work.php?work_id=550#1 1] with sources— ''Lyrcus'' of [[Nicaenetus of Samos|Nicaenetus]] and the ''Caunus'' of [[Apollonius of Rhodes|Apollonius Rhodius]]</ref>
