In Greek mythology, Salagus (Ancient Greek: Σάλαγόν) was the Cretan son of Oenopion, son of Ariadne. His mother was probably the nymph Helice and his sister was Merope (Aero) who was raped by the giant hunter Orion.[1] Together with his brothers Euanthes, Melas, Talus and Athamas, they followed their father when he sailed with a fleet from Crete to Chios.[2]
