Leda (Barnabas' wife)
Leda of Ithaka was the wife Barnabas and the mother of Leda.
Biography
In her younger years, Leda often sailed alongside Barnabas in the Aegean Sea. Eventually they married. However, they were separated, and lost track of each other.[1]
Leda had multiple adventures throughout her life. These included being caught by the 'sirens' within the Tomb of Polybotes on Kos, but escaping their clutches, leaving her aulos behind.[2] For a time, she also remained on the island of Anaphi, tending to a young one-eyed boy called Polyphemos, and fishing with him on the beach. Before she left him, she gave him 'spices'.[3] Leda also befriended Circe, with whom she spent a night drinking wine in the ruins on Atoll Point, Paros Island. She left Circe with her bracelet.[4] Decades after, her steps were retraced by the Spartan misthios Kassandra, following visions Barnabas had had while under the effects of lotus flower wine.[1]
Leda eventually remarried and settled down in the Sacred Plains of Demeter in Attika, where she owned a farm and raised her daughter, Leda. Leda passed away at some point prior to the Peloponnesian War, and her farm estate was passed down to her daughter.[5]
