Europs (mythology)

In Greek mythology, the name Europs (Ancient Greek: Εὔρωψ, romanized: Eúrops) may refer to:

• Europs, son of the autochthon Aegialeus, father of Telchis and grandfather of Apis, all of whom formed a legacy of the primeval kings of Sicyon according to a local legend.^[1] He was said to be the second ruler of Aegialea and have reigned for 45 years.^[2]
• Europs, son of Phoroneus whom Herophanes of Troezen wrote of as illegitimate; Pausanias concluded that Herophanes' account was plausible, since otherwise Phoroneus' kingdom would not have passed to Argus. Europs' own son Hermion was the presumed eponym of Hermione, Argolis.^[3]
