Cilix

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Greek mythology, Cilix (Κίλιξ) was a son of the King of Tyre and brother of Cadmus and Europa.

His father was either Agenor or Phoenix, son of Agenor.

Zeus saw Europa gathering flowers and immediately fell in love with her. Zeus transformed himself into a white bull and carried Europa away to the island of Crete. He then revealed his true identity and Europa became the first queen of Crete. Cadmus was sent out to find Europa and wandered to the region of Boeotia, and founded the city of Thebes.

Cilix, Europa's other brother, also searched for her and settled down in Asia Minor. The land was called Cilicia after him.
