In Greek mythology, Damno (Ancient Greek: Δαμνὼ) was an Egyptian princess as the daughter of King Belus of Egypt.[1]
Mythology
editDamno married her paternal uncle, Agenor, and by him, became the mother of Isaia and Melia. Later on, these two women married their cousins, Aegyptus and Danaus (brothers of Damno), respectively.[1]
In other accounts, the wife of Agenor was variously given as Telephassa,[2] Argiope,[3] Antiope,[4] or Tyro.[5]
