A river god; one of the many sons of Tethys and Okeanos (Ocean).
The river he lords over is sometimes called the Skamandros (Scamander) which is the ancient name for the river Kucukmenderes in Asia Minor which flows across the Trojan plain into the Dardanelles; 60 miles (97 kilometers) in length.
Zeus gave the Rivers, Apollon and the Okeanids the special obligation of having the young in their keeping.
