ACHIROE

or according to Apollodorus ii Anchinoe, which is perhaps a mistake for Anchiroe, was a daughter of Nilus, and the wife of Belus, by whom she became the mother of Aegyptus and Danaus. According to the scholiast on Lycophron Ares begot by her a son, Sithon, and according to Hegesippus, also two daughters, Pallenaea and Rhoetea, from whom two towns derived their names.
