Cephalion (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Cephalion (Ancient Greek: Κεφαλίων), also called Caphaurus (Κάφαυρον), was the son of Amphithemis and the nymph Tritonis and the brother of Nasamon, this marks his direct descendance from the sun god Apollo (Berber: Tafukt) and Libya .^[1]

Mythology

Cephalion's family lived in Libya and he was a shepherd of whose flocks were plundered by the Argonauts Canthus and Eurybates (Eribotes). These two were later killed by Cephalion in revenge. Then Cephalion was murdered by the hands of the tribal chiefs of the argaunots, whom had buried his body in earth and took his flock.^[2]
