Erinoma

In Greek mythology, Erinoma (/ɛrɪˈnəmɑː/) or Erinona (/ɛrɪˈnənɑː/) is a beautiful maiden who attracted the attention of both Zeus and Adonis, as well as the wrath of Hera and Aphrodite. Her story seems to be a local variant of Adonis's myth originating from the island of Cyprus, and survives only in the late works of Servius, a Latin grammarian who lived during the early fifth century AD.
