Lacritus (mythology)
Appearance
In Greek mythology, Lacritus (Ancient Greek: Λάκριτος) was the Boeotian father of the Argonaut Leitus and Clonius by Cleobule.[1] Otherwise, Leitus was called the son of Alector (Alectryon)[2] and Polybule[3] or simply he was an earth-born, thus a son of Gaea.[4] Meanwhile, in some accounts, Clonius' parents was/were (1) Alegenor,[2] or of (2) Alector and Acteis[3] instead.
