Kephisos was a river-god in Greek mythology, personified as a man with bull horns. He is the father of the nymph Lalaia, and according to Ovid, also of the mythical hunter Narcissus.
Legacy[edit | edit source]
In ancient Greece, numerous locations within the Peloponnese were connected with him. In Phokis, the village of Lalaia was built near a spring dedicated to him. The spring gave birth to the Kephisos River which ran from Phokis to Boeotia and into the Lake Kopais.[1]
Also in Korinthia, Kephisos had a sanctuary dedicated to him. However by the Peloponnesian War, the sanctuary had fallen into decay and became a ruin.[1]
