Eurydice of Mycenae

In Greek mythology, Eurydice (/jʊˈrɪds/; Greek: Εὐρυδίκη) was the daughter of Pelops and was married to Electryon, king of Mycenae and son of Perseus. She bore him Alcmena, mother of Heracles.[1] In other versions of the myth, Eurydice's place was taken by Anaxo, Electryon's niece.[2]
