'Aristeus was the son of Apollo and Cyrene, daughter of Ypseos the son of Peneios. Regarding his birth, some writers of myths say as follows: Apollo fell in love with a virgin who was reared in the vicinity of the mount Pelion, a maiden by the name of Cyrene distinguished for her beauty, and carried her off to the very land of Libya, where in the later years he founded a city called Cyrene after her.' From Diodoros' of Sicily. Book 4:81(1-2).
