Doto (mythology)

November 11, 2023

In Greek mythology, Doto (Ancient Greek: Δωτὼ means 'giver'[1]) was one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris.[2][3]

Mythology edit

Doto, together with Panope and Galatea, escorted her sister Thetis out of the sea to her wedding with Peleus.[4] Later on, Doto and her other sisters appeared to Thetis when she cries out in sympathy for the grief of Achilles for his slain friend Patroclus.[5]
