希腊神话中的罗德岛玛卡

在希腊神话故事中,马卡尔是一个比较常见的名字,其中最著名的可以说是与罗得岛和莱斯沃斯岛有关的赫利阿德-马卡尔。

赫利俄斯之子马卡尔

马卡尔(Macar)也被称为马卡琉斯(Macareus),通常被认为是神的儿子。 太阳神 这种亲子关系使马卡尔成为了 Heliadae Macar 还有一个妹妹 Electryone

较少见的是,马卡尔被称作奥勒努斯国王克里纳库斯的儿子,但这并不涉及马卡尔的早期生活。

马卡尔和泰纳吉谋杀案

马卡尔和其他赫利阿代人先是赶走了岛上的原住民泰勒希纳人,然后居住在罗得岛上。

马卡尔和他的兄弟们都是占星家,这是他们父亲给他们的礼物,据说他们是第一个把一天分成几个小时的人。 赫利阿代人也是航海专家,这是他们的祖父波塞冬给他们的礼物,因为罗德据说是波塞冬的女儿。

但马卡尔嫉妒他的兄弟泰纳吉的杀戮,因为泰纳吉的技艺远远超过其他赫利阿代人。 马卡尔,《阿克提斯》、 Triopas 坎达鲁斯和他的兄弟被嫉妒冲昏了头脑,杀死了他们的兄弟。

当然,这起谋杀案最终还是被发现了,凶手被迫逃离罗得岛,只留下了赫利阿代的奥基穆斯和塞卡弗斯。

莱斯沃斯上的马卡尔

马卡尔将前往莱斯沃斯岛,尽管当时该岛还未命名,但他在那里蓬勃发展,成为该岛的统治者,并通过征服邻近岛屿扩大了自己的王国。

随后,马卡尔对莱斯沃斯岛的重要性体现在他的子女身上,因为据说他有六个女儿,可能还有五个儿子。 马卡尔子女的名字主要来自拜占庭的斯蒂法努斯(Stephanus of Byzantium)。 人种学 或 Diodorus Siculus 的 历史书目 .

马卡尔最有名的女儿是莱斯沃斯城的同名人梅特希姆娜(Methymna)。 梅特希姆娜嫁给了拉皮索斯的儿子莱斯沃斯,莱斯沃斯岛便以她的名字命名。

马卡尔的其他女儿分别是阿加梅德、安提萨、阿里斯贝、伊萨和米蒂利尼,她们都以自己的名字命名了莱斯沃斯岛上的城市,但似乎并不是所有的城市都流传到了后来的古代。

马卡尔的儿子们是西多拉斯(Cydolaus)、埃雷萨斯(Eresus)、勒西普斯(Leucippus)、尼安德鲁斯(Neandrus)和另一个未命名的儿子。 马卡尔的儿子们是殖民者的首领,他们从莱斯沃斯出发,有的去了马卡尔征服的岛屿,有的去了其他地方。

伊利亚特 莱斯沃斯岛被称为 "马卡尔的所在地",尽管我们有理由认为当时马卡尔已经不在人世,因为该岛还被称为 "普里阿姆的花园"。
