Hyperphas


In Greek mythology, Hyperphas was a leader of the Phlegyans and an ally of the Thebans. He was the father of Euryganeia who, according to Pausanias, married Oedipus after the death of Iocaste; Pausanias also maintains that it was she, and not Iocaste, who bore Oedipus his four children. Defending this version, Pausanias refers to the poem Oedipodea and to a painting by Onasias which depicted Euryganeia in grief over the conflict between her sons.
According to Hesiod, Hyperphas had another daughter, Euryanassa, who married Minyas.
