Argynnus

In Greek mythology, Argynnus (Ancient Greek: Ἄργυννος, romanized: Árgunnos) is a young and handsome boy from Boeotia. He is said to have been a lover of the Greek king Agamemnon, and to have later died in the Cephissus river. Agamemnon subsequently establishes the worship of Aphrodite under the epithet "Argynnus".

His story is told by the Greek elegaic poet Phanocles, as well as by Athenaeus and the Roman poet Propertius. According to the Byzantine author Stephanus of Byzantium, he is the son of Pisidice, while Likymnios of Chios considered him the lover of the god Hymenaeus.
