{{For other uses|Dryas (mythology)}}

In Greek mythology, Dryas (Ancient Greek: Δρύας, gen. Δρύαντος, from δρῦς "oak") was a lord from Calydon who was also one of the famous Calydonian hunters.[1][2]

Family

Dryas was a son of Ares[1][3] and a brother of Tereus. But according to Hyginus' Fabulae, he was also called the son of Iapetus ("the piercer"), probably an epithet of Ares.[2]

Mythology

In the account of the Fabulae by Hyginus, Tereus, having heard the prophecy that his son was to be killed by the hand of a relative and falsely believing that it was Dryas whom the oracle indicated, murdered the innocent man (whereas the son was actually murdered by Procne).[4]

"Tereus, son of Mars [Ares], a Thracian . . . thinking that his brother Dryas was plotting his son's death, he killed the innocent man."
