The mythographer Apollodorus reports that, according to Cercops Nauplius' wife was Hesione, and that in the Nostoi (Returns), an early epic from the Trojan cycle of poems about the Trojan War, his wife was Philyra, but that according to the "tragic poets" his wife was Clymene.
 * Hesione, daughter of Celeus, was one of the sacrificial victims of Minotaur. She may be the sister of another victim, Porphyrion granting that their father named Celeus is the same.
