Template:Short description Script error: No such module "about". In Greek mythology, Theano (/θiˈeɪnoʊ/; Template:Langx) may refer to the following personages:
- Theano, wife of Metapontus, king of Icaria. Metapontus demanded that she bear him children, or leave the kingdom. She presented the children of Melanippe to her husband, as if they were her own. Later Theano bore him two sons of her own and, wishing to leave the kingdom to her own children, sent them to kill Melanippe's. In the fight that ensued, her two sons were killed, and she committed suicide upon hearing the news.[1]
