Calydon

This was a terrible creature sent to ravage the country of Calydon by Artemis in order to punish the King, Oeneus, because he forgot her when he was sacrificing the first fruits to the gods at the harvest-time.

He took part in the great Calydonian Hunt, when the King of Calydon called upon the noblest in Greece to help him kill the terrible boar which was laying waste his country.

“Princess of Calydon,” the river god said mournfully.

Only when I reached Atalanta in Calydon, in the fourth volume, did the reason of this become evident.

Driven from Calydon for homicide, he goes with Deianeira to Trachis.
