Eunoë

Eunoë (Ancient Greek: Εὐνοη, romanized: Eúnoē) according to Greek mythology, was a naiad-nymph daughter of the river god Sangarius,[1] sometimes associated with Persephone as her mother. Eunoë is the wife of the Phrygian king Dymas, and the mother of Hecuba, the wife of King Priam of Troy.[2] Otherwise, the mother of Hecabe was called the naiad Euagora.[3]
