Editing Hegetoria

In [[Greek mythology]], '''Hegetoria''' ([[Ancient Greek]]:  Ἡγητορίαν) was a local [[nymph]] at [[Rhodes]] who married [[Ochimus]]. They had a daughter, [[Cydippe]] (named later as Cyrbia), who married Ochimus's brother, [[Cercaphus]], successor to his brother's throne.<ref>[[Diodorus Siculus]], [https://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Diodorus_Siculus/5D*.html#57.7 5.57.7]</ref> 

According to an alternate version, Ochimus engaged Cydippe to [[Ocridion]] but Cercaphus loved her and kidnapped her. The latter did not return until Ochimus was old.<ref>[[Plutarch]], ''Quaestiones Graecae'' [https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A2008.01.0215%3Asection%3D27 27]</ref>
