Pinarus (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Pinarus (Ancient Greek: Πίναρός Pinaros) was the son of Tremilus[1] who named after himself the land he settled, Tremile, which later became Lycia. His mother was the nymph Praxidice, daughter of Ogygus, and he was the brother to Tloos,[2] Xanthus, and Cragus.
