Glaucippe
Glaucippe (Ancient Greek: Γλαυκίππη), in Greek mythology, is a name that may refer to:
- Glaucippe, a Libyan princess as one of the Danaïdes, 50 daughters of King Danaus and the naiad Polyxo. She married (and murdered) Potamon, son of Aegyptus and Caliadne.Apollodorus, [http://data.perseus.org/citations/urn:cts:greekLit:tlg0548.tlg001.perseus-eng1:2.1.5 2.1.5]. This Glaucippe is also mentioned by Hyginus. Due to his list of Danaids and Aegyptiads being poorly preserved, her husband's name is almost illegible here: *Niavius.Hyginus, Fabulae [https://topostext.org/work/206#170 170].
- Glaucippe, daughter of Xanthus and possible mother of Hecuba.Scholia on Euripides, Hecuba 3
