释义 |
In Greek mythology, Nomia {{IPAc-en|ˈ|n|oʊ|m|i|ə}} (Νομία) was a nymph of Arcadia, where the local people believed the Nomian Mountains to have been named after her.[1] She was apparently a companion of Callisto, the daughter of Lycaon: Pausanias mentions a painting of the two, with Callisto sitting on a bearskin and her feet lying on Nomia's knees; there is also Pero portrayed next to them.[2] Nomia is also a name for a type of water goddess, many believe that she started off as nothing but a nymph until one day Callisto, decided to trade her love for a god status. Nomia is also a possible name for the Sicilian nymph who loved Daphnis but was abandoned by him and, in revenge, blinded the young man and changed him into a rock.[3] References1. ^Pausanias, Description of Greece, 8. 38. 11 {{DEFAULTSORT:Nomia (Mythology)}}{{Greek-myth-stub}}2. ^Pausanias, Description of Greece, 10. 31. 10 3. ^Servius on Virgil's Eclogue 8. 68 2 : Oreads|Arcadian mythology |
