Nysiads

The names of the nymphs include: • Ambrosia • Arsinoe • Bromia or Bromis • Cisseis • Coronis • Erato • Eriphia • Nysa • Pedile • Polymno or Polyhymno Also mentioned are Callichore and Calyce (after whom two moons of Jupiter, Kallichore and Kalyke, are named). In later tellings of Dionysus's infancy, the Nysiades appear to be identified with the Hyades. The term might have been used for the Pleiades and the Hyades as Dionysus's tutors altogether. ==Notes==
