Pheres (son of Cretheus)

In Greek mythology, Pheres (Ancient Greek: Φέρης, Phéres, modern pronunciation Féris; Latin: Pheres) is the son of Cretheus and Tyro, and the brother of Aeson and Amythaon. In the Bibliotheca of Apollodorus, he is said to be the founder of Pherae in Thessaly.

In the Fabulae, he is said to be the father of Admetus by Periclymene. In addition to Admetus, Apollodorus calls Lycurgus, Eidomene, and Periopis children of Pheres.
