Celeus
For the woodpecker genus, see Celeus (bird). Celeus (or Keleus) was the king of Eleusis in Greek mythology.While Demeter was searching for her daughter, having taken the form of an old woman called Doso, she received a hospitable welcome from Celeus, the king of Eleusis in Attica. He asked her to nurse Demophon and Triptolemus, his sons by Metanira. As a gift to Celeus, because of his hospitality, Demeter planned to make Demophon immortal by burning his mortal spirit away in the family hearth every night. She was unable to complete the ritual because Metanira walked in on her one night. Instead, Demeter chose to teach Triptolemus the art of agriculture and, from him, the rest of Greece learned to plant and reap crops. He flew across the land on a winged chariot while Demeter and Persephone cared for him, and helped him complete his mission of educating the whole of Greece on the art of agriculture.

Keleos
Keleos - w mitologii greckiej król Eleuzis. Razem z żoną Metanejrą podjął gościną Demeter w czasie, gdy ta wędrowała po ziemi szukając swojej córki Persefony. Bogini chcąc odwdzięczyć się gospodarzom zajęła się wychowaniem królewskich synów, Demofoona i Triptolemosa. Ostatecznie bogini wyjawiła kim jest, kazała sobie postawić świątynię, a Keleosa uczyniła swoim kapłanem.

Celeus é um género de pica-paus, típicos do Novo Mundo. O grupo inclui 11 espécies, 7 das quais com ocorrência no Brasil. Os pica-paus Celeus são aves de médio porte, com cerca de 20 a 28 cm de comprimento. Uma das suas características mais notáveis é a presença de uma crista na cabeça, muitas vezes colorida. A plumagem destas aves varia de espécie para espécie, sendo que a maioria é marron. O corpo, mas principalmente as asas, costumam ter padrões riscados ou escamados em tons mais claros ou escuros. O grupo apresenta dimorfismo sexual: os machos são maiores e têm uma mancha vermelha nas faces, ausente nas fémeas de todas as espécies.
