An Okeanid, i.e. one of the three thousand daughters of Okeanos (Ocean) and Tethys.
In Argonautika Eidyia and Aietes (Aeetes) were the parents of Medea but in Theogony her name is rendered as Idyia.
Eidyia was the youngest Okeanid; she became the queen of Kolkhis (Colchis) and the wife of king Aietes (Aeetes); she was the mother of Khalkiope (Chalciope) and the sorceress, Medea.
Zeus gave the Okeanids, Apollon and the Rivers the special obligation of having the young in their keeping.
