Hegetoria

In Greek mythology, Hegetoria was a local nymph at Rhodes who married Ochimus. They had a daughter, Cydippe or Cyrbia, who married Ochimus's brother, Cercaphus, successor to his brother's power.[1] According to an alternate version, Ochimus engaged Cydippe to Ocridion but Cercaphus loved her and kidnapped her. He did not return until Ochimus was old.[2]
