Aba (mythology)

'wheel, shout') was a Thracian naiad nymph from the town of Ergisce in Ciconia.

[1] She became the mother of a son Ergiscus by Poseidon, after whom Çatalca (Ergisce) took its name.

[2][3][4] Aba is presumed to be a daughter of the river Hébros (Ἕβρος).

The source is uncertain, but it is likely related to aúo (αὔω, 'to shout, to call').

[6] Additionally, it is also coincidentally the Aiolic variation of the Doric word hébe (ἥβη, 'youth').
