Dodone (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Dodone was said to be one of the Oceanid nymphs, after whom the ancient city of Dodona was named. The 6th century AD grammarian Stephanus of Byzantium, writes that according to Thrasyboulos, as reported by Epaphroditus in his commentary on Callimachus's Aetia the city was named after Dodon or Dodone the wife of Deucalion who named the city after her, and according to Eustathius, on Iliad 2.750, the city was named after Dodone, a heroine or Oceanid, or after Dodon.
