Panthius

Panthius (ancient Greek Πάνθιος Pánthios) is in Greek mythology one of the 50 sons of Aegyptus, the twin brother of Danaus, and is therefore one of the Aegyptiads.

According to the poorly preserved, incomplete list of 47 of 50 Danaid pairings in the fabulae of Hyginus Mythographus, he was killed by his wife Philomela on their wedding night. [1] It is possible that he is identical to the Pandion killed by Callidike in the Danaid catalog of the Apollodorus library. [2]
