In Greek mythology, Pierus[pronunciation?]
(Ancient Greek: Πίερος Píeros) was the son of Thessalian Magnes.
He was the lover of muse Clio and father of Hyacinth in some accounts,[1] and Rhagus[citation needed].
Pierus was loved by muse Clio because Aphrodite had inspired her with the passion, as a punishment for deriding the goddess' own love for Adonis.
