Menalces (Son of Aegyptus)

Menalves (ancient Greek Μενάλκης Menálkēs) is one of the 50 sons of Aegyptus, twin brother of Danaus, in Greek mythology. His mother was Gorgo, who had five other sons by Aegyptus: Periphas, Oineus, Aegyptus, Lampos and Idmon.

For the mass marriage of the 50 sons of Aegyptus with the 50 daughters of Danaus, in which the pairings were decided by lot, Adyte, the daughter of Pieria, was assigned to him as his wife. Like the other sons of Aegyptus, with the exception of Lynkeus, he was killed by his wife on their wedding night.[1]
