Cephalus of Athens
By some accounts described in Greek mythology, Cephalus to fall in love with him. He was eventually carried off and ravished by her in Syria. Consorting with the goddess, by some accounts Cephalus became the father of Tithonus, the father of Phaethon. In some accounts, he was the son of Hermes by Creusa or of Pandion while Phaeton was said to be his son instead of Tithonus.
On the pediment of the kingly Stoa in the Cerameicus at Athens, and on the temple of Apollo at Amyclae, the carrying off of Cephalus by Hemera was represented. According to a single myth, Eosphorus was also called the son of Cephalus and Eos.
