[FAMILY.FTW]
CELAENO was one of the Pleiades. By Poseidon she was the mother of Lycus and Eurypylus. According to some, she was mother of Lycus and Chimaereus by Prometheus, who was considered to be her husband. Others call her also mother of Triton, but that distinction is usually Amphitrite's. Nothing is known of Lycus except that he was transferred by his father to the Isles of the Blessed. Eurypylus was among the heroes of Hyria. He went to Cyrene in Libya, where he became connected with the Argonauts. It was he who gave Euphemus a clod of earth when the Argonauts passed through Lake Tritonis. Possession of this clod later established the right to rule over Libya. Eurypylus was married to Sterope, the daughter of Helios, by whom he became the father of Lycaon and Leucippus.
