In
Greek mythology, Daedalion was a son of
Hesperos and brother of
Ceyx. He is described as a cruel and warlike man. His daughter
Chione was so beautiful that both Apollo and Hermes impreganted her. She then became vain and boasted that she was more beautiful than Artemis. When Artemis killed her in revenge, Daedalion was so grief stricken that he threw himself off a cliff at
Mt. Parnassos, and
Apollo turned him into a hawk.
