Areia (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Areia (Ancient Greek: Ἀρεία means ‘warlike’) or Aria was the Cretan nymph daughter of Cleochus.

She became the mother by Apollo of Miletus.

[1] When Areia gave birth to her son she hid him in a bed of smilax, Cleochus found the child there and named him Miletus after the plant.
